Biography

I attended UWS nearly 20 years ago when doing my Undergraduate teaching degree and taught at schools in a number of capacities for 18 and a half years. I started teaching at UWS when a colleague asked me to do some casual work here in 2007 and made the difficult decision to leave the schools to work here full time in 2009. I am honoured to work with the next generation of educators.

I started Post graduate study in 2008 and continue with my current research examining educator burnout.
