I have been working for 1300SMILES at the Upper Ross practice for the last 2mths, and have really enjoyed my time within the company thus far. I recently, (early January), moved over from the UK to be closer to my family who live down South, and was attracted to Townsville for the nice weather and relaxed attitude of the community.

Prior to making the move to Australia, I had been practicing in both public and private dentistry practices in the UK, and experienced both very busy, general dentistry, and very quiet, high-end cosmetic dentistry. I enjoyed the exposure to both areas as I feel it broadened my skill development and interest in my profession.

The main aspect I like about being a dental practitioner is the fact that I can have face-to-face, regular interaction with people, and feel that I’m really accomplishing something by being able to assist patient’s with their dental needs. I am a very hands-on kind of person, and enjoy the fundamental aspects involved in my line of work.

Outside of dentist chair, I enjoy a wide range of sports, including squash, tennis and most recently – wakeboarding. I am also an avid traveler, having travelled overseas many times, including to South/Central America and India which I really enjoyed.

The most interesting things that have happened to me was singing for the Queen once, and most recently, meeting Vanilla Ice, (although maybe not something I can boast about!)
