Meet our scholars

I’m an early-career researcher and medical doctor training in Ear, Nose, and Throat Surgery in regional Australia. I work in a team performing grommet and other ear surgeries for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in rural and remote NSW. After medical school, my lifelong passion for social equity led me to complete a Master of Public Health to more closely examine the health systems in which we operate. I am now a PhD candidate at UNSW, seeking to optimise pathways for the delivery of ear surgery in priority populations. My vision is to give all Australian children the best start in life through healthy hearing. When not in the hospital or at my desk, you can find me enjoying long runs in the bush or tackling cryptic crosswords with my husband and cat
