WORK EXPERIENCE

In January 2012 I decided to go back to General Practice.

ANY OTHER INFORMATION YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD ABOUT YOURSELF
In 2003 I went to Perth/WA to study an undergraduate course in sportscience. During that year I discovered my passion for surfing, the ocean and wildlife.
I met my husband, an Aussie boy and keen surfer and since then have been spending a lot of my holidays and spare time searching for waves:-)
I am very passionate about the outdoors, camping and sports in general. Growing up in Austria means spending all winter in the snow, on boards or skis.
I’m a qualified snowboarding, skiing, and whitewater kayaking instructor.
I love the idea to combine my passions and profession. I’m excited to join a team of people who share similar interests, volunteer abroad and provide care for fellow surfers and those in need.
