Eligible to supervise Masters and PhD - email supervisor to discuss availability.
My background is multidisciplinary and includes geological and archaeological science research of terrestrial and marine environments. I have an MA in wreck site archaeology and a PhD in terrestrial geoarchaeology. Since obtaining my doctorate, I have applied my geoscience skills and knowledge in regulatory, consultancy and academic roles both in the UK and Australia.
I have had opportunity to apply my geoarchaeological and sedimentary knowledge, both at the macro- and micro-scale, to research on the Barrow-Montebello Island complex (including through the ARC-funded Barrow Is. Archaeology Project); to submerged landscape research as part of ARC-funded Deep History of Sea Country project; and in my own ARC DECRA fellowship that was largely focused on the palaeoenvironmental context for the cultural records of Barrow Is. and the Montebello Islands.
In the past few years I have being undertaking collaborative research with Esperance Tjaltjraak Native Title Aboriginal Corporation (ETNTAC) on their Wudjari Ancient Coastlines project. I am continuing this partnership through an ARC Future Fellowship exploring past and present wetlands of the Recherche Archipelago in Western Australia. This cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary project integrates Indigenous knowledge with geoarchaeological and palaeoenvironmental research to better understand long-term human–environment relationships and support cultural heritage outcomes.
ARC Future Fellowship - Tracing cultural continuities in West Australia's ancient coastal wetlands
About the project
The Recherche Archipelago and its surrounding coastline represent an ecologically distinct and culturally significant region that has remained largely underexplored in Australia. This interdisciplinary, cross-cultural project investigates past and present wetland environments, examining how they intersect with modern ecological theories, and so traces the dynamics of human-landscape interactions over the last 21,000 years. This research is undertaken in partnership with the Esperance Tjaltjraak Native Title Aboriginal Corporation (ETNTAC), which represents the Noongar Wudjari people, the Traditional Owners of the Country that includes the study area. Sedimentary and mapping data will be combined with geohistorical and biocultural archives to reconstruct changing coastal palaeogeography and biodiversity following Post-glacial sea-level rise, and providing new context for cultural stories and Songlines that extend across the archipelago. This work not only enriches our understanding of Australia's diverse cultural and ecological heritage but also aligns with the UNESCO Ocean Decade's goal of fostering “the science we need for the ocean we want.”. This multidisciplinary project offers a range of HDR opportunities, from Honours to PhD level.
Wudjari Ancient Coastlines
This fellowship is part of the broader Wudjari Ancient Coastlines (WAC) project, led by the Esperance Tjaltjraak Native Title Aboriginal Corporation (ETNTAC). The WAC project focuses on the Eastern Recherche Marine Park and South-west Corner Marine Park, exploring species and habitats along the ancient coastline, which extended to approximately 120 meters offshore 20,000 years ago. A cornerstone of both these projects is two-way knowledge sharing, combine Indigenous Wudjari kaartdijin (knowledge) and Western Science to fill critical data gaps and increase knowledge and understanding of cultural landscapes in the biodiverse region of southwestern Australia.
