Short presentation
My current research is in the area of life course epidemiology, specifically concerning mental health and health behaviours.
I have worked as a registered psychologist in Australia and completed a combined PhD/Master of Psychology (Health) at the University of Adelaide, South Australia. My PhD thesis considered psychosocial work factors and their association with measures of overweight and obesity, as well as energy balance-related behaviours (e.g. diet and physical activity).
