TEACHING EXPERTISE

I am a lecturer of Indigenous knowledges at NIKERI Institute, Deakin University. I enjoy teaching students from a wide range of disciplines - across the university - about Indigenous knowledges, histories and cutural identity in community and on Country.

 

I hold research interests in Indigenous knowledges and health/wellbeing of communities, critical dis/ability studies and early childhood education. I am interested in Indigenist positionings, autoethnographical approaches to research, posthumanist positions and theories of affect/desire. I am available for supervision.
