Stella completed her Bachelor of Applied Science (Physiotherapy) through WAIT, which is now Curtin University. Stella has worked in both the public and private healthcare sectors, locally and in the UK. She has extensive hospital based experience in a broad range of acute medical and surgical specialties, and in rehabilitation. She has also worked in oncology and palliative care. Her main interests are post-surgical care, rehabilitation, gerontology and patient education. Stella finds enabling people to regain independence following surgery, illness or injury very rewarding.
Time outdoors is enjoyed when not working. Together with friends and family camping, bushwalking, at outdoor cinemas and festivals, or simply sharing a meal.
