ADOT brings years of experience from diverse industries, including hospitality, road constructions and mining to name a few. While she gained valuable skills across these fields, her true passion has always been helping people.

She worked for many years as a sports trainer and achieved the highest level in this field and had the opportunity to work at various national and international sporting games events including the Arafura and Alice Springs Masters.

Over time, she realised her true calling was in allied health. She made the decision to resign from her previous work and pursued her studies, graduating from UniSA as a mature-age student. She began her Occupational Therapy career in the Northern Territory, where she has practised across the region for over 20 years.
