Kate graduated with a Bachelor of Prosthetics and Orthotics from La Trobe University in 2004.
After graduating, Kate was immediately offered a one-year graduate position at St. Vincent’s Public Hospital. Throughout this year, Kate was exposed to complex musco-skeletal conditions (particularly Polio) and complex custom made orthotics. This included custom foot orthoses, custom ankle-foot orthoses and custom made ground reaction ankle-foot orthoses. St Vincent’s Hospital is one of the only Orthotic departments in Australia to use carbon fibre and fiberglass laminates almost exclusively to create their orthoses.
