PROFESSIONAL PROFILE
As an experienced, published and dedicated professional academic, I have high-level skills in
complex mathematical research and publication, including the International Journal of Pure
and Applied Mathematics. On numerous occasions, I have presented my findings to large
and international audiences, have received recommendations and commendations from
prominent industry members, and have successfully published papers in many international
journals. My employment history demonstrates lecturing capabilities at a broad range of
levels within the university sector, and research capabilities in line with PhD studies via
research.
Having presented my research and papers at a broad range of conferences, both within
Australia and internationally, I am keen to continue this; however, I also would like to
embrace lecturing responsibilities. The combination of my experience, advanced
mathematical knowledge, ability to build rapport with students, and to work collaboratively
with colleagues means my skills will make a positive contribution to your University and
faculty.

TEACHING STATEMENT
We are adaptable, but our preferred philosophical line in practice would lead
us to assert that if a student is mentally able to learn, is willing to, and is
displaying behaviour consistent with willing to via actions (compliant
behaviour) in that direction, we can only be told to be an educator if they get
at least pass mark at the end of our course.
Our preferred philosophical line in teaching is a mix (John Dewey's, Paulo
Freire's, Gestalt's, and our own thoughts about the subject) that is slowly
taking shape (Teach for Freedom).
