I am a Senior Lecturer at CQUniversity’s Appleton Institute. My mission is to help Australia’s workers get better sleep by collaborating with researchers and industry to create healthier and safer workplaces. This mission is supported by a vibrant and cohesive research team I continue to grow, with shared values of scientific integrity, compassion, mentoring, and collaboration. My research program focuses on three key areas: improving sleep and health in workplace settings, understanding how physical activity and diet influence sleep, and developing behavioural interventions to promote better sleep health.Since I was awarded my PhD from Deakin University in 2016, I have published >100 publications and secured >$3 million in research funding - including an ARC-DECRA, ARC-DP and MRFF. I have received >25 research awards. I am a South Australian Tall Poppy (https://bit.ly/38UAbwv), winner of the Rob Pierce Grant in Aid and Nick Antic Career Development Award, winner of the National 5-Minute Research Pitch Competition (https://bit.ly/3DwLdW5) and received the CQUniversity Vice Chancellor’s Award for Outstanding Early Career Research. I have supervised programs of research for 12 PhD students, 25 Honours students and 13 summer scholars. My work has shaped international policy, contributing to the European Union's labour rights framework and the World Health Organisation's International Agency for Research on Cancer report.
