PhD candidate Department of Management and Marketing

"My PhD study seeks to investigate factors driving organisations to utilise particular workforce management arrangements and their consequences for employees. The project is being conducted across several industries within Australia. I am also currently tutoring organisational behaviour in the department of Management and Marketing.
