I primarily teach in first year psychology and focus my work on supporting student success across the univeristy experience. My approach aims to successfully transition students into and across univeristy such that they leave with a confidence and security knowing they are equipped with the skills and experiences to be competitive in their career postgraduation.
My industry engagement has focused on developing evidence for effective strategies to recruit and retain a diverse workforce within a range of contexts, most recently in 2025 with the Office for Early Childhood Development, South Australian Government.
