About me
Picture
Language and literacy are my passion.  By developing these skills through the Academic Language and Learning Success Program (ALLSP)  at Charles Darwin University (CDU), I hope to help students build a bridge to their future.
My study areas are diverse with an Undergraduate degree majoring in Criminology, English and Law and then for my Honours,  Victorian and Feminist Literature.  With a love of language instilled by my mother, I completed a Masters of Applied Linguistics with a dissertation in 'How language is used (specifically in the context of Banking in Australia)'.  since joining CDU, I have completed my Graduate Certificate in University Learning and Teaching and discovered a desire to read and code  assessments at university and to work with my colleagues to assist them with looking at their assessments from a students' perspective.
​
Another area of interest is instilling an ethical approach to academic integrity. Guiding students and creating n awareness of the importance of scholarship and integrity as they approach their studies.
