I’m the registered nurse at Surry Hills Doctors – with over 30 years’ experience in a variety of clinical settings. Many moons ago, I graduated with honours in Bachelor of Nursing in one of the very first cohorts of nursing graduates at Sydney University. Yes, I’m one of the OGs!
Throughout my nursing career, I’ve worked in most of the major Sydney Metropolitan Hospitals in medical, surgical as well as mental health units. I have extensive experience in wound care, burns, vascular, paediatrics, respiratory, dialysis, palliative nursing, Stroke and High Dependency Units.
Along the way, I found my passion in family practice nursing, caring for patients and families – young and old – and helping them navigate our health system. I’m also fiercely protective of anyone requiring medical care, as if they were my own family.
When I’m not caring for my four boys, I volunteer my time at Legacy Australia and disability support groups. I also train therapy dogs (one of which is my own, Jaxon!).

I’m a registered nurse at Surry Hills Doctors. I have interests in child and family health, wound care, women’s health and cosmetics.
I ensure that all care is specified to individual needs whether that is soothing a child’s fears, enhancing natural beauty, healing wounds with vigilance, or empowering women to prioritize their health.
Whether you’re a kid or a kid at heart, there’s always a lollipop or sticker waiting for you!
Outside of work I enjoy gym, pilates and spending time with my pets. I also love finding new bakeries with great coffee !
