I had wanted to be a nurse ever since I was 7 years old. There is no other occupation I could see myself doing and nursing is a huge passion of mine. I am currently working as a travel nurse in Australia. I have experience in both medical wards and Oncology/Haematology and am trained in administering chemotherapy and immunotherapy. I was raised in Queenstown, New Zealand, but have been working across Australia for over two years now. I have been lucky enough to find a specialty that I am extremely passionate about, and that specialty is Oncology and Haematology. I am constantly wanting to gain experience in that area and improve my clinical skills.
During my time working as an HCA I built on my therapeutic relationship skills and time management skills and became extremely familiar with how a ward runs.
I grew up in Queenstown. Being in the outdoors is something I have always loved. As a child, my parents taught me and my younger sister to ski, and it is a huge passion of mine. I rowed competitively throughout my high school years, and I believe this has led to my excelling in working in a team. During the summer, I enjoy water skiing and taking scenic walks. I have lived in Australia for over two years now and feel I am ready to come back home to New Zealand to be closer to my family and friends.
