Originally from Europe, I started working with dairy cows at age 11. With a lifelong interest in animals and animal health, after completing my undergraduate education I worked for 2.5 years as a veterinary practitioner in Europe with production animals and occasionally companion animals, before migrating to New Zealand. I then worked as a veterinarian for 3.5 years mainly in mixed animal practice, with a special interest in production animals, before taking up the position of Senior Research Officer with special interest in lactational physiology and bovine mastitis at the Institute of Veterinary, Animal and Biomedical Sciences (IVABS), Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand. From November 2010 my research position was transferred to a Lecturership position.I have developed an interest in teaching and from 2006 have taught into the undergraduate degrees in veterinary and agricultural sciences at Massey University. My research interests included lactational physiology and pathology, the development of drugs and preventive measures for bovine mastitis and improving the fertility of dairy cattle.In January 2012, I moved to a position of Senior Lecturer in Ruminant Health (Cattle) at the University of Adelaide, Roseworthy Campus. From April 2017, I accepted a position of Associate Professor in Ruminant Health and Production at the same University. My current research interests include bovine lactational physiology and pathology, the development of drugs, preventive measures for bovine mastitis, improving the fertility and productivity of cattle, herd health and production and antimicrobial resistance.As recognition of my research in the area of lactational physiology and pathology, I was a co-leader of the Mastitis Research Centre team at Massey University (2006 – 2012) together with Prof Norman Williamson. My current research attracts international collaborations with teams from Argentina, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, and the USA, and as recognition of my research activity, I am reviewing papers for prestigious international journals.

From January 2012 I moved to Australia to take up a position of Senior Lecturer in Production Animal Health/ Ruminant heath.
