Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow!”
(Anthony J. D’Angelo).

I have over twenty years of experience in vocational and higher education. I design and create educational programs and resources for the vocational and higher education sectors.

My expertise includes educational design for face-to-face, online and blended programs. I encourage the implementation of emerging technologies while also incorporating hands-on practical activities to enhance student engagement.

I offer seminars, workshops, short courses, and one-on-one coaching sessions to encourage educators to incorporate modern teaching practices that motivate and inspire learning.

Current research: I am a PhD candidate at James Cook University; my thesis is A Phenomenological Exploration of the Transformative Experiences of Postgraduate Students Without an Undergraduate Degree.

This research is significant considering the number of students entering postgraduate programs, particularly non-traditional students, juggling full-time employment, raising a family, and studying. This research aims to understand the non-traditional postgraduate student experience to assist in developing tools and resources to enhance the student experience and contribute to the literature concerning non-traditional postgraduate students and transformative learning.

I write children’s books and related educational resources—the first is a series of children’s books based on a character named Baby Elephant. I have added a drop menu with links to the books and resources in this site’s header.
