Animal welfare is shaped by human decisions and actions. I’m here to support staff, students, and animal carers at Charles Sturt University to make those decisions, providing an approachable point of contact for guidance and discussion whilst promoting high standards of animal care across the University.

I provide advice and practical support on animal ethics applications, regulatory requirements, and best‑practice animal care and use. This includes working with staff and students to help them understand the ethical and legislative frameworks that guide animal use in research and teaching, and supporting continual improvement in animal care. I also support the University to meet its obligations under relevant standards, guidelines, and legislation, and monitor how animals are cared for and used across the institution.
