Education
I completed an BA from The University of Queensland in 1996, with a Postgraduate Diploma in Education, which is an internationally recognized certification for teaching at the K-12 level. In 2002, I completed a M.Ed. (TESOL/Second Language Teaching) with a research component at The University of Sydney, while continuing to work in the NSW public school system. From 2004, I moved into higher education, and I began my PhD research, while working full-time at universities in Australia and Japan. In 2010, I submitted and passed my doctoral dissertation for the award of PhD (Education) from the University of Sydney. For more information on my education history, click here.

I also taught Communication Theory in the Master of International Business program.
