I graduated with a Bachelor of Applied Science (Occupational Therapy) from the University of Sydney in 2004, and have had a range of roles in Occupational Therapy practice in my 20+ year career span since this time.

For 16 years, I worked in a variety of roles within the public and private health systems, in community and hospital-based roles in Sydney, London and country NSW. During this time I specialised in working with people in rehabilitation and neurological settings,  specifically with clients following stroke, brain injury, spinal injuries and complex orthopaedic injuries, such as lower limb amputation. I have a special interest in cognitive and upper limb assessment and rehabilitation, and was a clinical lead in my roles at both Sutherland and St George Public hospitals for a total of 10 years.

I commenced working in a private practice in 2020, and have been able to apply my diverse range of clinical skills and experience in a community setting. I am confident with working with clients within the NDIS, aged care, and iCare Dust Disease scheme. I am also an approved iCare case manager for the Lifetime Care and Support and Worker’s Care schemes, and complete medico-legal assessments.

I have had experience with project management, development of services, university tutoring, conference presentations and research within my interest areas of neurology and specifically upper limb and cognitive rehabilitation.

I always ensure that the client is the centre of my practice both as an OT and as a case manager. I am kind and empathetic in all of my interactions, and enjoy helping people to achieve their goals. I provide a high-quality service and comprehensive reports.

While I most often see clients in the Sutherland Shire, Georges River, Bayside and Canterbury-Bankstown areas, I am often travelling and willing to travel further afield for clients requiring one-off functional assessments and housing assessments. I can provide telehealth assessments as required.
