Can help with: I’m happy to chat about research in schools or juggling the PhD and parenting. Please get in touch if you’d like to carry out an analysis using my data from Australian high schools. I’m also interested in hearing about opportunities to collaborate on projects.
What’s essential to your well-being? I love walking and drinking tea. Best taken regularly, alone and with others. With four young children, there’s a lot of balls to juggle! Life feels better when I have enough time with my kids, with my husband, and alone. I’m passionate about my work, but it’s only one piece of my life.
