BIO
I am an award-winning researcher, teacher and administrator who is always looking to make a real and valuable contribution in my work. I am an Australian historian with broad research interests, including in memory and commemoration, public and popular history, the history and politics of emotions, and the study of place. My first monograph, Places of Reconciliation: Commemorating Indigenous History in the Heart of Melbourne (Melbourne University Press, 2021), won a Victorian Community History Award in 2021. I often work collaboratively and across disciplines, including as the lead editor of the collection Interdisciplinary Unsettlings of Place and Space: Conversations, Investigations and Research (with Shelley Hannigan, Bernadette Walker-Gibbs and Emma Charlton, Springer, 2019). I am currently working on two main research projects: one on the history of pandemic grief and mourning in Australia, and another interdisciplinary project on the experiences of time during the COVID-19 Pandemic.
