I am a Lecturer in the School of Psychology at the University of Adelaide. I am currently teaching into the Online Graduate Diploma in Psychology. I also work as a researcher at the Borderline Personality Disorder Collaborative. My research interests lie in the area of life body image/eating disorders and how they interact with sexual orientation, and personality disorders.

This PhD was undertaken from the University of South Australia, and was supervised by Professor David Gleaves, A/Professor Amanda Hutchinson, A/Professor Phil Kavanagh, and A/Professor Elizabeth Reiger .
