I have a background in education through teaching Latin Languages, especially French and Spanish, in Australia, France and Spain. I was an examiner for the British Association Examiners Board in Marbella, Spain. During my eight years in Spain, I had industrial experience in business, law, banking and the building industry using extensively my skills in Interpreting and Translation.
This is my 29th year at Bond University. My areas of expertise are in Intercultural Communication, World Languages, French and Spanish Language. I have coordinated the European languages since 1991.
I am an expert in French and Spanish Language teaching methodology, and have set up the Romance language departments at various educational institutions in Australia and Spain. I developed the French and Spanish Language courses at Bond, including exchange programs where students complete their Major degrees in France and in Spain.
I am on the selection committee for the candidates who apply for an Internship at Austrade, in Paris.
I have published 7 books since 2007, the fourth, fifth and seventh, co-edited with Australian and International authors. The seventh co-edited volume was released in May, 2019.
Extracurricular activities include interpreting and translating for Law firms on the Gold Coast, as well as being an official interpreter with Migrant Services.
