Education

​

I completed my medical education, including my Advanced Science degree, medical degree and Masters in Medicine at the University of Sydney. I was admitted as a Fellow to the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (FRACGP) in 2017. In 2022, I moved to Hobart for the lifestyle and am focusing on my two professional special interests -  skin cancer and gender affirming care.

Skin and Surgical Experience

​

I cut out my first skin cancer in first year uni while on a scholarship placement on Kangaroo Island and I have been drawn to skin cancer surgery ever since. During medical school I took every surgical opportunity presented to me, completing rotations in general surgery, urology, vascular surgery and orthopaedics as a junior doctor. I spent a year as junior orthopaedic surgeon gaining skills in larger operations and wound closure. I continue to develop my skin cancer and skin surgery skills as a GP and I have competed a Diploma in Dermatoscopy, the microscope used in skin checks, and a Diploma in Skin Cancer Surgery, gaining skills to do advanced skin surgeries like grafts and flaps. I have done skin cancer surgery through out my GP career, working at times in dedicated skin clinics and doing outreach clinics in regional NSW. I am continuing my professional development in the field through attending conferences, participating in masterclasses and engaging in regular educational meetings.
