Ruby graduated from the University of Newcastle in 2020 with a Bachelor of Occupational Therapy (Honors). With over a decade of experience in occupational therapy since 2007, she has honed her skills, including serving as an AHA at a short-term rehab centre. It was during a clinical placement at Port Macquarie Base Hospital that Ruby discovered her passion for hand therapy.
After completing her OT degree, Ruby worked in paediatrics while also starting her own family. Her long-term goal has always been to return to hand therapy, driven by her dedication to helping individuals regain mobility in their upper limbs and regain independence in daily activities.
Currently, Ruby is in the process of accreditation through AHTA. Additionally, she is actively pursuing further professional development by enrolling in additional courses offered by external providers. Ruby is committed to expanding her knowledge base in Upper Limb therapy through evidence-based practices. She stays updated with the latest advancements by regularly reading journal articles, participating in webinars, and listening to expert discussions on podcasts.
Ruby’s passion lies in restoring upper limb mobility to individuals, enabling them to actively participate in meaningful activities and regain independence in their daily lives.
