I am a geologist, palaeontologist, Senior Research Fellow/Senior Lecturer in Earth Science at the University of New England, Armidale, on Anaiwan Country in New South Wales, Australia. I am a Superstar of STEM , NSW Young Tall Poppy, A.H. Voisey Medalist, Walter Howchin Medalist and ARC-funded researcher (DECRA22). I am committed to changing the landscape for girls and women who aspire to a career in STEM - particularly the Earth sciences. These values are core to LithoLabUNE (LLUNE); a multidisciplinary Earth science research and teaching community at UNE I have co-founded. Get in touch about projects, research, collaborations, outreach/media/speaking appointments or studying with us at UNE.
