BSc (Neuroscience), MPharm, MPS
After graduating from University of Western Australia with a Master of Pharmacy in 2011, Renee worked for eight years at a community pharmacy in Perth’s northern suburbs before transitioning into locum work across a wide range of community and clinical settings, gaining invaluable insight into diverse healthcare workflows. She then made the decision to move to the country, spending a portion of her career serving regional and rural communities in Western Australia, and she developed a deep understanding of the unique healthcare challenges faced by remote populations. This foundational experience shaped her lifelong commitment to expanding access to high quality primary care, ensuring every patient, regardless of location, receives supportive, personal, and safe clinical guidance.
Renee currently operates her own community pharmacy, where her practice focuses on patient-centred care and optimising medication outcomes to prevent adverse events and hospitalisations. Always looking to expand and refine her skill set to widen the scope of professional services she can offer, Renee holds clinical accreditations in Home Medicines Reviews (HMR), Aged Care On-Site Pharmacist (ACOP), pharmacist-led vaccination and women's health services. Additionally, Renee is PCCA-trained giving her the ability to practice complex compounding of medications tailored for individual patient needs. Through her advanced scope of practice and passion for innovation, Renee actively searches for technology-driven health solutions to streamline medication management.
Outside of her clinical practice, Renee is an outdoor enthusiast who loves exploring nature through hiking and snorkeling. She thrives on personal growth and discipline, constantly pushing her limits through functional fitness competitions like HYROX and martial arts training in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. A passionate foodie, Renee’s love for travel is driven less by typical sightseeing and far more by culinary exploration, traveling the globe specifically to immerse herself in local cultures and trying traditional, authentic cuisines.
