My commitment to increasing Indigenous people coming through nursing is me paying it forward because had that not happened, God knows where I would be.

Nursing was not only an opportunity for a better life, it was a lifeline.

My career in health very much started at a grassroots level, with some strong Eldership and mentorship from the community and my mum.

I’ve been very deliberate about that in my career; identifying what skills and qualifications I needed in order to be listened to and be able to have more impact for my people.

When you get cultural safety right, it actually works as a very good retention strategy for Indigenous students in health programs because it validates the reasons why they actually come into a program.
