About me

I am a Senior Grant Support Officer within the Grant Application Support Team in RIS. I am also the Grant Application Support Team contact for the UniSA Business School (BUE). I am available to assist researchers with the preparation and submission of funding applications, particularly for ARC, NHMRC and other Category 1 funding bodies.

I joined UniSA in 2014. Prior to then I completed a PhD in Physiology (University of Adelaide) and worked as a postdoctoral researcher for over 5 years. I have published more than 40 journal articles and book chapters and have supervised a number of postgraduate students. I have received research funding from a range of sources, including RIRDC, Cooperative Research Centres, and industry.
