Background:
Originally employed in November 2001 by Jo Wainer to write several reports for the Commonwealth Government on the Gender Issues in Rural Practice Project for the School of Rural Health , Monash University, she became the Project Officer for the Gender Working Party in July of 2002.
In this role she was responsible for demonstrating the need for gender mainstreaming in the new 5 year medical curriculum at Monash. This involved advocating for the mainstreaming by developing relationships with key faculty and curriculum 'gatekeepers', outlining the rationale for mainstreaming and demonstrating its value through the development of gender-specific curriculum and assessment.
She is now employed by the Centre for Medicine and Health Sciences Education (CMHSE), Faculty of Medicine, Nursing and Health Sciences to mainstream a gender perspective throughout the medical curriculum.
She completed an undergraduate medical sciences degree with pharmacology and physiology majors, and biochemistry and microbiology minors at Monash University in 1988. She then completed a Masters in Reproductive Sciences at Monash in 1990 with a thesis in endocrine research. After a year of medical research she developed an interest in HIV prevention. After realising that HIV prevention rests largely on the modification of social behaviour she returned to university to study social sciences, particularly gender studies and qualitative research techniques for her PhD in Public Health (submission March 2009)
