SPEECH PATHOLOGY TEAM
Since 2003, I have worked with adults and adolescents in major hospitals and community-based rehabilitation. I am an experienced therapist, manager, supervisor, and project officer. I started Wollongong Speech Pathology so that I could offer a flexible, quality service to people in my community.
I joined the team in 2019. I studied a Bachelor of Speech and Hearing Sciences at Macquarie University and a Master of Speech and Language Pathology at the University of Sydney. Throughout my studies I developed a passion for helping adults and adolescence achieve their communication and swallowing goals. I am excited to be a part of the team at Wollongong Speech Pathology and work within the beautiful Illawarra.
I joined the team in 2024. With a broad range of experience across different healthcare settings, I am passionate about helping patients achieve the best possible outcomes. I am committed to providing evidence-based care that is both efficient and effective, ensuring every patient receives the highest quality service. Working in speech pathology allows me to make a real difference in people’s lives, and I’m excited to be part of a team that shares this dedication to excellent care.
I joined the team in 2018. I have many years of experience working with adults in rehabilitation hospitals, and have a particular interest in neuro-rehabilitation, for example stroke, Parkinson’s, and Motor Neurone Disease, and head and neck cancer. I love being able to meet with clients in the community, their homes and workplaces and help them to make progress with their goals.

I love that as a Speech Pathologist, I have the opportunity to have a positive impact on people’s lives.
I joined the team in 2024. I grew up in the Hunter Valley and recently moved to the Illawarra from Sydney to escape the busy city life.
