I am a lecturer in the Discipline of Exercise Science, based at ACU's St Patrick's Campus in Melbourne. I lecture in the sport, health and exercise psychology units at the undergraduate level and postgraduate level. I am also the course advisor for the Bachelor of High-Performance Sport degree in Melbourne and the National course coordinator of the exercise science/bachelor of high-performance sport honours program. I am interested in researching career transitions of athletes, including the experiences of dual career athletes. I am also interested in researching athlete wellbeing and performance.
I am also a registered psychologist and have extensive experience working in high performance sport settings. My most recent roles were as the club psychologist for the Melbourne and Hawthorn Football clubs' AFLW programs. I have a passion for both teaching and working as a psychologist in high performance sport.
 
I have received several teaching development grants exploring best practice in education and in supporting the elite athlete performer program to aid in retention, success, and wellbeing
