Jemma’s family has a history of working in health care, so she always knew she wanted to join the industry. She decided to pursue the profession of occupational therapy after seeing the difference working with an OT made to her younger brother’s life. Jemma also has a background in optics, with several years experience as an optical dispenser.
Jemma thrives when given the opportunity to be creative and come up with new games and therapy ideas for her clients. She particularly enjoys working in the area of paediatrics as creativity is vital! Jemma loves that working with children requires a fun and playful approach, and challenges her to push herself in delivering innovative therapy ideas.
As well as developing her work in paediatrics, Jemma has an interest in the area of neuroscience and would love to explore more of the use of the music and art in her therapy programs.
Travelling and trying new experiences like zip lining and skydiving are some of Jemma’s hobbies. Her most recent trip was to South America where she completed a 5 day hike to Machu Picchu. In her free time you’ll find Jemma at the beach or trying a new coffee venue.
