With over two decades of experience as an occupational therapist in a range of practice areas, countries and roles, I bring expertise in assessment and clinical reasoning for complex clients. I have an extensive background working under a range of ACC contracts and established a national team of clinicians, training and supervising occupational therapists, physiotherapists and nurses to undertake support needs assessments for clients under serious injury. Alongside my clinical career, I have developed teaching skills as a Lecturer in occupational therapy. I am organised and efficient in my approach to tasks and can work well independently and alongside a team. I value collaboration and further growth and development and bring a strong desire to deliver positive outcomes in my work.
