I am an early career researcher with four years’ experience in primary health care and qualitative research at the Discipline of General Practice,  Adelaide University. My thesis methodology incorporated critical and poststructuralist theory as well as cultural theory and textual analysis, and I have undertaken additional training in qualitative methodologies. I lead the consumer engagement program at the Discipline of General Practice, and have expertise in primary care research and trial implementation, general practice software and data, and recruitment and practice engagement. I am currently involved in several research programs and clinical trials in the areas of rural health, hypertension, and opioid pharmacotherapy.
