About Me
I have been practicing as a Speech Pathologist in the South East of Melbourne since 2009.
I have a passion for the management of communication and swallowing difficulties following diagnosis and treatment of Head and Neck cancer and have extensive clinical experience in this area.
I have worked in acute and rehabilitation settings, as well as providing clinical education for students, medical and allied health colleagues.
