About me
My research investigates Australia’s changing population and the implications of this for society and communities. Much of this work involves an examination of population diversity; the interaction between people and the built environment; community connectedness, and social networks. My background includes a PhD in Human Geography and Honours in Social Policy.
My most recent work explores how the built environment, especially green and public spaces, influence ageing well. This includes exploring housing choices such as retirement village living, vertical communities, inner city ageing and international comparisons of age friendly cities. My research often includes using innovative approaches such as citizen science, GIS and spatial analysis of social issues, ‘go-along’ interviews or photovoice.
I welcome inquiries from Masters and PhD candidates interested in: ageing populations, the built environment, social networks and/or community connectedness, qualitative methodologies, social policy, and migration and mobilities.
