Throughout my career I have continued to study achieving a Graduate Diploma in Nursing Management in 1999 and a Bachelor of Education in 2004, after which I worked in a large private hospital as a Perioperative Educator for eight years. During this time I completed my Masters of Perioperative Nursing.
