Please briefly describe your clinical/medical experience to date?
I trained and worked in Australia as a paediatric physiotherapist in the community setting prior to moving to the UK in 2023. Since moving, I have been part of the Oxford Children’s Hospital Therapy Team and worked across the neuromuscular, orthopaedic and intensive care services.
What motivated you to enter paediatric care in the first place?
I’ve always loved working with children and used to work in schools prior to commencing my physiotherapy studies. When I had a placement in a paediatric setting, I knew it was for me!
How will the funding from The Evie Dove Foundation help you to advance your career and your impact/services to children?
The Evie Dove Foundation has provided me with multiple opportunities to engage in courses which have progressed my knowledge. Not only does this improve the care I have been able to provide to my patients, but it has allowed me to share this knowledge with our team and improve our overall services.
How did you find out about The Evie Dove Foundation?
Through a colleague who also received incredible support from the Foundation.

Outside of work you can find me running, reading or planning my next trip (sometimes back home to Australia!).
