Welcome to my website
I am a Senior Lecturer and Research Fellow in the College of Arts and Education at Victoria University, Victoria Australia. My research interests are in digital learning and leadership, education policy, and teachers' workplace, consumer and human rights. I have worked in education for the past 20 years, as a classroom teacher, and course leader in Government and non-Government sectors, TAFE and Higher Education. Most recently I have been working as a teacher educator and educational researcher.
This website provides a means for me to share my work with teachers and educators, prospective research students, and the general education community. Much of my published work is available here, alongside a range of resources that you might find useful.
Selected work
Since 2019, I have published various journal articles and book chapters, and presented at various conference nationally and internationally. I have also written various media articles. In this website, I have included links to my work where possible. If there is anything your would like to read and cannot get access to, please contact me.
My research and associated publications fit within three broad areas: Impacts and Implications of Digital learning and Leadership, Education policy and Pedagogy and Practice
