BIO
Lecturing and coordination of mathematics units at the undergraduate level.
Mathematics deputy discipline leader.
I completed my PhD on The use of aggregation functions in decision making
under the supervision of Dr. Gleb Beliakov at Deakin University in 2010.
Since then I have held a Lecturing position in the School of Information
Technology.
Before undertaking my PhD, I had completed a double degree in education and
arts and so I have maintained a strong focus on reflective teaching practices.
I was recognised with the Deakin University Award for Excellence in Teaching
in 2013.
My research interests to date have included aggregation functions, fuzzy
measures and fuzzy sets, group decision making and consensus, as well as
inequality indices such as those used in ecology and economics.
