I am a Clinical Psychologist and Head of Research at Aspect, and an Adjunct Senior Lecturer at the University of Sydney. I am also the parent of a young man on the autism spectrum and am passionate about research that aims to make a difference in the everyday lives of autistic people and their families. Prior to my current role, I was responsible for establishing Aspect’s first dedicated diagnostic assessment service. I have lead or supported research projects on a wide range of topics, including several autism and criminal justice related projects and projects related to autism screening and assessment practices, violent victimisation, employment, education, financial well-being, and self-compassion.
