Meet the team

I have achieved 10,000 hrs in a number of fields in diagnostic ultrasound. I am mindful of what I do and know that the diagnosis requires knowledge not just the ultrasound scan findings but also the history of what has happened to you and clinical findings. I strive to work closely with the clinicians who refer patients to me, so that the best results will be achieved.

I am a New Zealand trained sonographer with diverse experience across multiple disciplines with professional experience working throughout New Zealand and in the UK. During my post graduate ultrasound training I developed a special interest in musculoskeletal imaging. On completing my postgraduate studies, I have focused my attention on honing my diagnostic skills using musculoskeletal ultrasound. Over the past 10 years I estimate I have performed more than 20,000 examinations within this subspecialty and now work exclusively in this area.

I strive to work in an evidence-based manner, and in collaboration with my colleagues and referrers I aim to provide accurate and clinically relevant diagnostic information to aid clinical decision-making assisting in the patient’s recovery.

I love my job and I’m passionate about my ongoing education. It is a privilege to help my patients on their road to recovery and to work with a diverse group of talented health professionals who refer to us.

I grew up in Dunedin and I am married with two daughters. I have an active lifestyle and enjoy a range of outdoor pursuits including swimming, skiing and wakeboarding. I have previously played rugby, competed in athletics and have been involved with surf lifesaving.

I am interested in musculoskeletal diagnosis from a structural and functional perspective. My background in research, teaching and rehabilitation contributes to solving clinical problems. Currently, I am interested in acute musculoskeletal care and believe that early diagnosis gives us the best basis for a carefully structured recovery.

I enjoy meeting people from all walks of life and listening to their stories.

I live in west Auckland with my wife and two children. I stay active by working outdoors in my spare time and am a regular gym-goer. I also enjoy spending time kayaking, swimming and fishing with my kids.

I joined Sound Experience and its busy admin team with ten years of administration experience, six as a medical receptionist. Our team works hard to ensure our patients are met with the warmth and kindness necessary in the medical field while maintaining a high standard of professional patient care.

I enjoy interacting with people, listening to their war stories, and learning new things. No two days are the same at Sound Experience.

My operations role is to connect referrers with our services. And to support our team in doing their best work. My background is in production and services. I am interested in how people engage with the systems and processes designed to help them.

Working at Sound Experience since 2019. Initially, my role was invoicing; shortly after, I joined the reception team. Sound Experience is a great place to work; our team of sonographers are always learning and growing the field of musculoskeletal ultrasound. It is very interesting to see and be a part of the development.

With over thirty years of secretarial and accounts experience, I have worked part-time at Sound Experience for nearly two years. I enjoy the reception work, meeting and greeting patients. My hobbies include reading, getting out in nature, walking, and natural healing.

My role within Sound Experience is in admin, working on a part-time basis. Being part of a busy team that is supportive and appreciative of each other. I enjoy keeping active through pilates and walking. I play golf badly and also follow rugby league and softball.
