Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.


I am a physiotherapist by background with a particular interest in allied health implementation research. My PhD research (completed in 2013) explored the determinants of evidence uptake in allied health and investigated the impact of a structured journal club on the research utilization of allied health practitioners. Following my PhD, I worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of South Australia where I developed, implemented and evaluated a clinical performance evaluation framework for allied health practitioners. During this time, I also conducted numerous systematic reviews and rapid reviews for various commissioning bodies.

In 2015, I joined the JBI as a Research Fellow in the Implementation Science team. My work involves developing resources, tools and strategies to facilitate evidence implementation, mentoring clinicians to develop, implement and evaluate strategies to facilitate research uptake, and conducting systematic reviews and other research related to evidence synthesis methodologies and implementation. I am the Convener of the JBI Mixed Methods Systematic Review Methodology group.

When I’m not working, I love being in the kitchen--baking makes me happy!

My research is focused on evidence synthesis, evidence transfer and evidence implementation in allied health.
