- PhD Candidate, Occupational Therapy, Southern Cross University
I am a qualified Occupational Therapist and a PhD candidate at Southern Cross University, where my research explores the lived experience of learning and generalising daily living skills as an autistic person. I have authored two peer-reviewed papers:
- Daily living skills of autistic adolescents and young adults: A scoping review (April 2022)
- Daily living skill support for autistic people through a neurodiversity-affirming practice lens (October 2024)
My scoping review has earned multiple accolades, including recognition as the most cited and downloaded paper in the Australian Occupational Therapy Journal for 2024.
