I am a Psychology PhD student funded by the Eastern ARC, currently based in Canterbury. My academic background is mainly in Organisational and Social Psychology. I study how age diversity and mindfulness may reduce age discrimination in the workplace. I usually teach at the Business Psychology (SP311) and Psychology Summer School (IS004). I also write for The GradPost and more recently I started the first steps on my own start-up business.
