Building resilience across natural and human systems is at the heart of our social, economic and ecological well-being.  It's my passion, and would love to help you in exploring resilience through a wide range of applications across network and behaviour change modelling with applications in business technology adoption, consumer health initiatives, disaster and environmental management across our tropical region.

Currently, I am a panel supervisor for Honours and PhD students.  The small cohort of Pharmacy Honors students are all working on different aspects of the compulsory introduction of e-scripting during COVID from a business/pharmacist practice perspective and also through the perceptions of consumers. The PhD student is working to discover patterns in offender behaviour to locate deceased persons after violent crime to improve efficiencies SAR resourcing and aid faster case progress for investigators and closure for victims families.

I am able to support you effectively by utilising multi-disciplinary qualifications and practical industry experience, providing a unique strength in organisational problem solving, practical research outcomes and authentic industry focused learning for students.  My qualifications include a Detective's Appointment (QPS), Bachelor of Law (QUT), Masters of Business Administration – Masters of Professional Accounting (JCU), PhD (Commerce-Marketing)(JCU) and membership of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (MAICD).

I have always worked full time while studying for my qualifications, practically applying skills and gaining over 20 years management experience across private and public sectors.  I have provided services back to my community as a business consultant advising start-up and turn-around  business ventures, on Executive committees, think tanks and as a Non-Executive Director in Board positions throughout rural, regional and remote Queensland. 

I have several years of experience living and working in Aboriginal communities across the Cape (Northern Peninsula of Queensland), the Gulf (Gulf of Carpentaria) and in Central Western Queensland. 

Due to the diversity of skills and experience that support the main thread of ‘resilience’, I have experience in the development, delivery and coordination of undergraduate, postgraduate, executive and professional practice programs (including medical & veterinary) across a number of JCU’s Colleges and Disciplines outside my 'home base' in the College of Business Law & Governance. 

Please feel free to give me a call if you’d like to discuss how I could help support your research project.
