Optometrist
B.Optom.(Hons.) Ocular Therapeutics (ACO)

I graduated from the University of NSW in 2004 with first class honours. I spent my early career gaining experience in a diverse range of clinical settings, spanning from rural

NSW to the UK.

I have completed a post graduate qualification in Ocular Therapeutics and I am qualified to prescribe eye medications to treat infectious and inflammatory diseases of the eye.

I have a special interest in childrens vision and how it impacts education. I am also a lecturer and tutor to Optometry students at the University of Canberra.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband and three sons exploring Canberras beautiful landscape, I am also an amateur Acapella enthusiast and performer.
