I have studied Bachelor of Psychology (Honours) part-time through University of Southern Queensland since 2018. This long and winding journey has allowed me to remain reflective and curious, whilst managing the competing roles of work, family life, and study.

During this time, I have also worked in the Domestic and Family Violence (DFV) sector: initially as a frontline victim-survivor advocate, before moving into systems advocacy. I spent three years coordinating a High Risk Team, facilitating a multi-agency response to DFV for those assessed to be at imminent risk of lethality. In 2024, I moved into a role which allows me to develop my data analytics skills while taking a different approach to systems advocacy.

I am a feminist, with a systems approach to DFV which encompasses its intersection with contextual factors such as AOD and mental health. I have a strong interest in DFV-related brain injury, coercive control, and evidence-based practice in intervention and prevention.
