I'm a Lecturer and Education Focused academic in the School of Banking & Finance, UNSW Business School. I obtained my PhD in Finance from UNSW.
I'm a passionate educator teaching at the tertiary level and seek to offer students a lively and inspiring learning experience. I have worked enthusiastically and effectively with students at both undersgratuate and postgratuate levels since 2018. I engage students through providing pastoral care and support that aim to alleviate barriers of learning. I have designed and delivered courses that integrate practical applications into academic learning. Meanwhile, I have introduced several new digital teaching initiatives and is closely involved in UNSW BCom and MCom program and course redesign and redevelopment.
