Driven to address social and cultural determinants of health she has founded a charity the provides early education and care to rural and remote Queensland families; inspires rural medical educators to deliver innovative, fun, evidence-based teaching; leads a world recognised, rural generalist led, medical student program; and as a GP, privileged to work within Aboriginal health, asks the challenging questions.
