My anatomical pathology training was completed at Concord Repatriation Hospital (NSW) with various rotations to large tertiary public hospitals including Royal prince Alfred Hospital, Children’s hospital Westmead as well as private pathology laboratories including Australian clinical labs.

Since being awarded the fellowship with the Royal College of Pathologists of Australasia in 2015, I have held staff specialist positions in Coffs Harbour Health Campus, Gosford Hospital, Histopath Diagnostics and Melbourne pathology.

I have been mainly involved in the areas of Anatomical pathology and cytopathology, in particular, with a special interest in Breast, Lung, Head and Neck, Gastrointestinal, Gynaecology and Genitourinary pathology.

I have been closely involved in mentoring and exam teaching for registrars of other specialties as well within anatomical pathology and have been heavily involved in the medical student teaching program with University of Sydney and held a conjoint lecturer status affiliated with University of Newcastle.
