I combine research expertise in demography and geography with hands-on experience in data and statistical analysis. This unique blend has equipped me with the ability to leverage my technical skills to analyse and understand geographic and demographic phenomena.

My diverse professional and academic experiences have shaped me into a versatile generalist who thrives on continuous learning and innovation. Whether working independently or collaboratively, I consistently deliver high-quality results while pursuing creative solutions to complex problems. This dedication to excellence has earned recognition for my early research contributions.

I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Philosophy in Demography and Geography at Flinders University (2024) while maintaining my role at the Australian Bureau of Statistics part-time. This dual commitment reflects my ongoing pursuit of both practical application and theoretical advancement in my field.

I have previously completed research across a range of topics in Demography and Geography through work and study. I have a long-held interest in International Relations and have published several shorter pieces centred on contemporary issues on Australian foreign policy.

My ongoing projects span a range of areas across Demography and Geography including:

• Fertility;
• Population Estimates;
• Population Projections; and,
• Labour Migration

Much of my research to date has been undertaken with my current PhD supervisors, Udoy Saikia and Gouranga Lal Dasvarma.

My biggest career success was in leading the development and data processing of the Australian Bureau of Statistics' Population Projections, Australia, 2022 (base) to 2071, published in November 2023.
