I have a Bachelor Degree in Medical Science and Honours (two-year Research) (CSU); A Graduate Diploma in Education (CSU) augmented with subjects from a Masters in Leadership (ACU); Certificate IV in Assessment and Workplace Training (CDU). I am also a registered nurse currently employed as the Clinical Trials Co-ordinator focussing on attainment of trial objectives and evidence-based outcomes. I have extensive and successful experience in the educational sector including executive roles and further formal studies and while this informs me in the provision of leadership and initiative, my more valuable knowledge of issues (e.g. welfare) stem from practical experience in health, education, medical science and team involvement.
