Personal profile
Research biography
I am a Lecturer in Finance at the Australian Institute of Business (AIB). I hold a PhD in Management from UniSA, an MA in Arts and Cultural Management from UniMelb, and a BA in International Business from RMIT.
My current research interests span two predominant areas: (1) Legitimacy management in digital native ventures, and (2) Portfolio management, specifically the role alternative assets (i.e., artwork, wine) play in hedging risk and generating returns.
I have a passion for teaching a broad range of subjects in Finance and Management, including Financial Management, International Business Environments, and Management and Organisation. I am also a member of the Association for Cultural Economics International and the International Association of Arts and Cultural Management.
