Masters of Research, (Western Sydney University), Masters of Horticulture

What is your professional background & experience?

I am a cultural researcher by training and currently a research scholar at Western Sydney University. My PhD research is on how people find jobs in the new economy employment market. I am looking at the challenges for migrants and graduates from regions to find employment and remain employable.

I am interested in knowing how transitioning graduates navigate the art of presenting themselves as the right candidate for the job. Their resumes, social media profiles and highlighting the right attributes that suit the job profile, among many other things, become part of this presentation. I hold a Master of Research degree from the same University, and I have ten years of professional experience supporting transitioning graduates from indigenous communities in India. I have another masters degree in Horticulture.

What are you excited about bringing to our Campus?

I am keen to support job seekers from MidCoast understand how the selection process works and help them craft their resumes,  prepare for interviews and make themselves noticed in the job market. Also, if you need support in referencing, literature review or research for your projects and assignments, I am here to help. 

I am a naturally relational person and love to support people connect to peer academic and professional networks. Being a member of the Taree Universities Campus is an excellent opportunity for me to meet new people and share my skill sets and academic expertise with the beautiful community of MidCoast.
