About me
Welcome to my home page!
I have been at UniSA since 2006 and am currently a Lecturer and Course Coordinator in STEM, specializing in Project Management for IT Professionals and System Design and Realisation. Currently, also contributing to the development of a new course for Adelaide University.
I completed my undergraduate at UniSA in Computer Science degree along with Diplomas in Business Accounting and Financial Planning in other institution. Recently, I've completed my Professional Certificate in University Teaching at UniSA. In the past, I have received two awards Citation for Outstanding Contributions to Student Learning for my work in developing inclusive teamwork in engineering and ICT from the Australian Federal Government's Office and UniSA. My approach integrates transdisciplinary, scaffolded, contextualised learning, helping to improve local and international students’ collaboration skills and global competencies.
I have designed, developed, coordinated and taught several courses within the University, in various modes, at the undergraduate and postgraduate levels, across numerous local and international institutions in UniSA, UniSA Online, Eynesbury College, SAIBT and An De College.
In my role, I work closely with the division staff to provide high-quality online and face-to-face teaching to undergraduate and master's students and also help coordinate and support the day-to-day activities with coordinators and online course facilitators. I am particularly passionate about developing supportive and inclusive learning environments and supporting students in their first, transition, or second year at UniSA, providing guidance and support to help them succeed.
I am a member of UniSA Higher Education Research Network (HERN) and organising committee of the 2025 ASCILITE conference held in Adelaide
