Personal Statement
Thank you for considering me for the position of Director of the Continence Foundation of Australia. I believe wholeheartedly that we can increase awareness and support for continence care in Australia. Supporting research, teaching and advocacy is crucial in this regard and I have a strong background in all those aspects.
Being a committee chair of the International Continence Society as well as my roles in the Urological Society of Australia and New Zealand, I understand that working together and being goal directed are crucial skills to bring to the table to support the foundation.
Working within an interdisciplinary team in my day job, I also keenly understand the important roles we play in advocating for our patients. I would love to continue in my role to support the Foundation as it moves into the future.
