Kate is a Registered Nurse with 5 years of experience working on various wards in The Royal Melbourne Hospital, as well as the women’s health clinic in The Royal Women’s Hospital. She has a postgraduate certificate in Sexual Health, and combines this knowledge base with her passion for holistic healthcare at Astrid. 

Kate’s interest in plant based medicine began when she saw first-hand how medicinal cannabis could positively impact her patient’s quality of life while working in a muscle rehabilitation ward. She has a passion for debunking the stigma surrounding cannabinoid medicine in Australia through patient education, and is dedicated to empowering her patients to achieve optimal holistic health. 

In her spare time you’ll find Kate camping, playing music or attempting to crochet.
