Teaching and learning have shaped my professional journey, beginning with a Bachelor of Education in Newcastle. I’ve taught secondary Health and Physical Education, contributed to the NSW School Swimming Education Program, and worked with students from Preschool to Year 6. My passion for Health Education led me into Higher Education, where I now lecture in HPE and Curriculum and Pedagogy for pre-service teachers. After completing a Master of Education focused on Health Education in faith-based schools, I recently earned my PhD in the same field at Griffith University. I continue learning alongside those I’m privileged to teach.
