As a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy (FHEA), I design learning experiences that bring together research, creativity, and critical thinking. At the University of Sydney, I teach Sociology and Digital Cultures across undergraduate and postgraduate levels. My teaching includes filmmaking workshops where students develop projects as a way of working through social questions in practice. This builds on my background in sociology, digital media, and film, and supports an approach that is attentive to different ways of learning while keeping a clear connection to real-world contexts.
