I am a surgical registrar currently working at Taranaki Base Hospital. Originally from Whanganui-a-Tara Wellington, I graduated from the University of Otago having spent my clinical years in Otautahi Christchurch, where I subsequently worked as a house officer. I am hoping to specialise in Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery in the long term. I enjoy research as an adjunct to clinical work, and am looking forward to spending time at the ASOHNS ASM to both network with colleagues and hear about other research currently taking place in various surgical avenues.
