About me
I joined the International Centre for Allied Health Evidence (iCAHE) at the start of 2018, after four years of clinical work as a physiotherapist within the public and private sector. My interest in evidence implementation sparked my recent career change as I am passionate about utilising the best available, context sensitive evidence to impact change. I am a believer in evidence based policy and after completing a Graduate Diploma in Public Policy and Public Management at the end of 2018, I have decided to further my learning through the commencement of a Masters of Applied Economics this year.
Within the centre, I have been involved in a range of rapid and systematic reviews, where I have particularly enjoyed working with our clients to thoroughly understand the aims of their research, to ensure that we tailor suitable, rigorous research methods. Highlights to date have included a literature review into hospital acquired infections and working with the Australian Physiotherapy Association. I look forward to being involved in future research projects at iCAHE, and as my research skills develop, I am eager to find opportunities to apply my economic and policy skills.
Outside of iCAHE, I play football for the Sturt Football Club and I was lucky enough to play in their 2016 and 2017 SANFL premierships.
