Biography

A Nurse by profession, Desiree has now been in academia for over 15 years. She has assumed several different clinical and academic roles during this time, such as a clinical nurse educator and academic team leader.

Desiree has worked with diverse range of learners in the Philippines, the Middle East and here in Australia.

She is interested in a variety of nursing topics, however Desiree's preferred subject areas are emergency and critical care nursing, and medical-surgical nursing.

Desiree is strongly invested in seeing her students succeed in their chosen careers. She believes that the best feeling an educator could have, is when a student comes back and thanks her for making a difference in their lives. Hence, it has become a lifelong responsibility to ensure that her students’ goal are met at the end of their course.

The University of New England respects and acknowledges that its people, courses and facilities are built on land, and surrounded by a sense of belonging, both ancient and contemporary, of the world's oldest living culture. In doing so, UNE values and respects Indigenous knowledge systems as a vital part of the knowledge capital of Australia. We recognise the strength, resilience and capacity of the Aboriginal community and pay our respects to the Elders past, present and future.
