I am a Certified Practicing Speech Pathologist and Lecturer/Unit Convenor witin the Master of Speech and Language Pathology Program.

In my work, I am dedicated to supporting all clients to achieve their goals by embracing diversity-affirming approaches. This commitment extends to supporting the self-autonomy and self-determination of those living with disability, empowering them to lead lives of their choosing.

I have clinical experience across public, private and not-for-profit sectors across New South Wales and the Northern Territory. I have been humbled by my experiences working alongside a number of First Nations communities in Central Australia, and have gained experience providing disability services across the lifespan, including diagnostic assessment.
