Biography
I joined The University of Queensland in July 2017, and am currently Course Co-ordinator and Associate Lecturer (Sport Management and Marketing), Tutor ( Professions, People and Healthcare) and PhD Candidate. My work focuses in particular on sport for people with disability, administration of local sport and the role of sports in the broader community. I teach utilising IT and administration skills from previous careers to foster the interactive learning of profession-based skills using contextualised teaching approaches and techniques. Also, I employ active learning technologies to facilitate engaging activities in individual and interprofessional group environments. Outside of academic life I am an advocate for the role of sports in the lives of people with disability and volunteer with the Brisbane Paralympic Football Program. My outside interests include travel, family, technology and permaculture.
