Role Research Coordinator

Contact

Experienced research coordinator and respiratory science specialist with more than 15 years of progressive involvement in paediatric respiratory research, clinical studies, and data management. Beginning my career in 2009, I've held roles across major research and hospital settings, including the Royal Children’s Hospital, Barwon Health, and the Murdoch Children’s Research Institute.

I have expertise in coordinating clinical studies, managing research operations, supporting ethics and governance processes, database design and implementation and working collaboratively with multidisciplinary clinical and research teams. Since 2015, I've served as a Research Coordinator for Respiratory Diseases Research at MCRI, overseeing key national studies including AREST CF and BEAT CF and coordinating smaller site specific studies such as earlyFLARE. Prior to this I had hands-on experience with paediatric lung function testing (including MBW, Pleth, FOT and Spirometry) as well as MBW lung function analysis.

I bring a strong foundation in respiratory science, Good Clinical Practice, research data management, and stakeholder engagement, supported by qualifications in exercise science, biomedical science, and multiple professional development programs. I'm an author on several peer‑reviewed publications and have contributed to national and international conference presentations.
