Brief background and research interests

I am a General Practitioner and PhD Candidate committed to compassionate, patient-centred care, and innovative primary care research. My interests are data and digital health research and implementation research with a focus on diabetes and generating meaningful impact for patients. I work closely with the Australian Centre for Accelerating Diabetes Innovations (ACADI) diabetes research team.

What led you to this research?

In the final year of my General Practice training, I completed a Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Academic Post with the Department of General Practice and Primary Care (DGPPC), alongside a Pre-PhD year of the Melbourne Academic Centre for Health (MACH)-Track, which led to my PhD research.
