Prior to joining UWS, she worked extensively in the early childhood field, managing a range of intervention services for young children and their families. These experiences have significantly influenced her teaching which focuses on the inclusion of children with disabilities and early intervention and prevention in early childhood contexts. Her PhD research will examine how early childhood teachers and consultants support the inclusion of children with disabilities in early childhood settings.
