I'm an optometrist and education-focussed lecturer with a focus on paediatrics and myopia control at the School of Optometry and Vision Science, ºÚÁÏÍø´óʼÇ. I co-convene the paediatrics component of clinical teaching at the ºÚÁÏÍø´óÊÂ¼Ç Optometry Clinic, am a key clinician within the Myopia Control Clinic and also teach into multiple undergraduate courses. I completed my PhD in 2025, which was an investigator-initiated clinical trial examining the non-inferiority of Acuvue Oasys for Presbyopia (Johnson & Johnson, USA) to the FDA-approved MiSight 1-Day contact lens.Â
