Prior to moving to UniSA I gained extensive real-world experience as a medical laboratory scientist in haematology, transfusion medicine and haemostasis including senior scientist and managerial roles. I have a PhD in Medicine from the University of Western Australia and am a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Medical and Clinical Scientists (AIMS). I coordinate haematology and clinical practice courses in the Laboratory Medicine Program in Clinical and Health Sciences. As a member of the AIMS Program Accreditation Council I am involved with accreditation of Laboratory Medicine programs across Australia. My research is currently focussed on identifying contributors to thrombosis in haematological cancer.
