Social Psych Academic & Tertiary Educator
Hi there! I'm a Social Psychology academic and tertiary educator in Melbourne, Australia.
My work has utilised both quantitative and qualitative research methods and I'm trained as a mixed-methods researcher. I've also been involved in community radio, journalism, and media communications as a volunteer in the past.
​
As an educator, I have previously taught for La Trobe University (mostly Psych Research Methods and Social Psych). I currently lecture for the Bachelor of Human and Community Services at SCEI-HE.
​
I'm open and available for consultation, collaboration, teaching, and research presentations.
Research Interests
Based in Social and Health Psychology (with an extra minor in Communications), I have a keen interest in identity, particularly on LGBTIQA+ identity, communities, and subcultures.
​
