"Returning to Australia in 2023 after nearly a decade abroad, I found myself searching for ‘my people’—those passionate healthcare education thinkers and innovators committed to making things better. At the ANZAHPE 2024 conference, I felt I’d found that community. A space where I can both contribute meaningfully and continue to learn. I’m excited to invest in and grow with the ANZAHPE community in the years ahead."
