Gemma is a medical doctor with an interest in sport and exercise medicine, currently undertaking research in the field of extreme sports. Prior to medicine she worked as an outdoor guide and as a spatial analyst for the Australian Federal Government involved in national mapping and natural disaster planning and response.
Gemma spends as much time as she can in the outdoors pursuing a variety of sports such as orienteering, trail running, mountain biking or hiking. She has an ambitious goal to complete a fastest known trail running time (FKT) on an iconic Australian trail in 2024.
