About me
I am a psychology student studying Motivation and Emotion at the University of Canberra.

The Book Chapter I am working on is Coercive Control in Intimate Partner Violence,

I am a horse owner and enthusiast with over 30 years of experience using natural horsemanship techniques and strategies, to train and gentle horses. I live in country NSW with my husband, eight children, and herd of 10 retired racehorses and brumbies. I have family history in harness racing, droving, and heavy horse work.

My work history is primarily in education and welfare, working with at-risk youth and learners with disabilities. For the past 28 years, I have worked in both mainstream and alternate education settings in behaviour management, including youth detention and mental health facilities. I am a qualified counsellor, and currently volunteer as a case manager in a residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility, for women who are working towards restoration of their children, post detention.

I am in my final year of study this year and I am particularly interested in forensic psychology.
