I live in Palmerston North and have practiced as a Nurse Practitioner since July 2005.  My practice has been across the health continuum with a focus on adult respiratory. Currently I am nurse leader of our secondary care service, I undertake clinics across the region including hospital, rural health centres and a partnership with Raukawa Whanau Ora.  I am passionate about nursing and supporting the development of our workforce by role modelling and enhancing capacity and capability wherever I can.
