Working as a lecturer of medical education in the South Australian Rural Medical Program (Riverland), I am passionate about rural education and the development of future rural doctors. My main areas of education are in anatomy, pathology and histology, primarily teaching into the Science & Scholarship domain of the MD program. 

My research background saw me complete my PhD in Biomedicine where I explored predictor factors of cognitive and mood trajectories in individuals following traumatic brain injury and those living with Parkinson's Disease. Working closely with these individuals enhanced my interest in improving clinical outcomes in clinical settings and has inspired me to work closely within current and future clinicians to raise awareness and guide better practice.
