Since beginning my academic journey as a PhD student (2020–2023) and now as a Senior Research Associate, I have had the privilege of teaching a range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses to diverse, international cohorts. I like to think of my classes as spaces where curiosity meets structure: we take complex ideas seriously, but not ourselves too seriously. My commitment to knowledge exchange, critical thinking, and student empowerment is reflected in the positive testimonials from students and colleagues (and in the fact that many students still email me with questions long after the semester ends!).
