Making sense of the world through stories

The art of stories and storytelling are central to my worldview, and how I make sense of the world through my practices as a professional coach, storyteller, teacher, education consultant and researcher. I have had successful careers as an early childhood teacher, vocational education teacher, professional development provider to education sector, storyteller, and university academic. Across these roles I foregrounded attention to social and ecological justice and collaborated with artists and arts programs for meaningful community development. I have shared my insights in international renowned publications on storytelling, children’s rights and citizenship, and research through storying. I bring this collective wisdom to the coaching and consulting services I offer.
