Hello, I’m Lou, a freelance medical writer and clinical optometrist with over 20 years experience in the health science industry.

I have an inquisitive mind with a passion for research and writing. Many years ago I obtained my degree in optometry then embarked on post-graduate study in the field of therapeutics. I have had the opportunity to extend beyond clinical practice and have been involved with clinical trials, audits, slides and medical communications. I am an experienced medical writer who is detail-focused with a strong work ethic.

I live…

In Auckland, New Zealand. We are surrounded by water and I love exploring the beach with my family.

I enjoy…

Playing my piano when I get a quiet moment, which is not often with two young active boys!

I believe…

A positive attitude and honesty are the building blocks for happiness in all facets of life.
