I have a passion for healthcare recruitment and the countless opportunities it presents to positively impact the lives of patients. I relish the chance to stay updated with the latest developments in healthcare technologies and therapy areas, finding deep satisfaction in witnessing the results of my hard work in action.

Holding a Bachelor of Applied Science, I find my expertise useful when analysing statistics and discussing scientific knowledge with clients and candidates alike.

Over the years, I have honed my expertise in the biotech, pharmaceutical, and medical device industries, building strong relationships with key stakeholders. Committed to delivering results on every assignment, I take a consultative approach with both clients and candidates, ensuring all bases are covered.
