I am an Accredited Practising Dietitian and Interdisciplinary Health Science Lecturer in the School of Health Sciences, Faculty of Medicine and Health. I have worked across a range of Australian public healthcare organisations encompassing management, education, clinical dietetics, community and food service. Most of my career has been within clinical dietetics and education within a tertiary hospital setting. Most recently, I held a leadership position within Mental Health Services leading the Dietetic profession strategically and assisted with the development and implementation of the services new specialist community eating disorder service where I also worked clinically. 

I am currently undertaking my PhD exploring the translation of interprofessional education into clinical practice, examining how learning about collaboration during training influences real-world team-based care. I am passionate about preparing health graduates to work effectively within multidisciplinary teams and to deliver high-quality, patient-centred care. 

My research interests lie primarily within the interprofessional education and collaborative practice space. 

As Interdisciplinary Health Science Lecturer I will teach students across all Health Science disciplines, with my goal to foster and develop students professional identify and collaboration skills.
