About Me

I am a Lecturer in the School of Access Education at CQUniversity. I joined CQUniversity in August 2023 and have since been actively involved in supporting students’ academic literacy development across a range of disciplines. My work focuses particularly on embedded academic literacy support and collaboration with teaching staff to integrate academic skills development into curriculum and assessment. My research interests include higher education, academic and digital literacies, TESOL and teacher education, student equity and inclusion, and the educational experiences of culturally and linguistically diverse students.
