About

I hold a PhD in oncology from the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute, where my research focused on the epigenetic drivers of cancer, uncovering novel drug targets and biomarkers for disease predisposition. My passion for understanding disease and therapeutics has led me to a dynamic career in medical affairs. I lead and execute medical strategy on a national and regional scale for various tumour streams and indications, manage investigator-initiated studies (IIS), lead product launches, and collaborate cross-functionally to deliver impactful education, evidence generation, and scientific engagement. My work combines scientific expertise with strategic execution to drive better healthcare outcomes for patients. Beyond my role, I serve on advisory and executive committees, including Higher Education Academic Boards, SMEC.AI and Medical Affairs Professionals of Australasia (MAPA). I’m also undertaking an MBA at Melbourne Business School. Passionate about giving back, I’m a volunteer at VSK children’s hospice, STEM ambassador and student mentor dedicated to inspiring future generations of scientific leaders, and supporting families in need.
