Researcher biography

I am currently a teaching and research focused academic in the Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences at the University of Queensland. I have over seven years of teaching experience in the tertiary setting, with involvement in curricular design, student engagement, course co-ordination, teaching and significant leadership roles including program leadership.

I am an early career researcher currently working in the School of Nursing, Midwifery and Social Work. I have a passion for researching the employment outcomes of early career health workers and expertise in longitudinal survey design.
