She has a particular interest in quality obstetric anaesthesia. In addition she enjoys the whole range of surgical specialties here on the Sunshine Coast, caring for both adults and children.

She is an instructor on the Managing Obstetric Emergencies and Trauma advanced life support group course and PROMPT and ACE multidisciplinary training courses.
