I grew up in Sydney and in 2003 left for a life in rural NSW. I currently live in Tamworth and prior to that lived in a lovely little place called Warialda, the place of wild honey.
I have been lucky enough to work in many of our rural communities since 2003 including in Moree, Inverell, Bingara and Warialda and all the smaller towns in between. I am also an Associate Lecturer for the University of Newcastle, Department of Rural Health supporting the clinical training our next generations of Occupational Therapists for rural practice.
