How will I contribute to improving Indigenous health as a qualified medical practitioner or health worker?
I have always been passionate about Indigenous Health and had aspirations of pursuing a career as a doctor with a focus on Indigenous health and community outreach. Although this is not my current degree, I still have dreams of using laboratory medicine as a pathway perhaps into post graduated medicine. Laboratory Medicine, so far, has shown to be very rewarding and an interesting degree that holds many career opportunities and I am excited to explore both the pathology and public health sides of the degree.
I hope to play an active role in Aboriginal health especially in organisations such as Nunkuwarrin Yunti which has been a personally inspiring organisation.
