I’m originally from a small rural town in Victoria called Donald and I moved to Adelaide to study optometry. I graduated from Flinders University with a Bachelor of Medical Science (Vision Science) and Masters of Optometry with ocular therapeutics. I’m interested in treating and managing red eye conditions as well as fitting various contact lenses to suit our patient’s lifestyle requirements. I have hosted a number of optometry students for placement and find it rewarding to mentor up and coming graduates. Outside of optometry I enjoy spending time baking as well as relaxing with friends and family.
