At the University of Melbourne, I earned a Master of International Development with a concentration in Land and Natural Resource Governance, achieving First Class Honours. While there, I also took on leadership roles, notably as Media and Communication Director for the Graduate Organisation of Development Students (GOODS). Further deepening my expertise, I completed a Masters of International and Public Law from the same institution between 2013 and 2016, with specializations in Environmental Law, Business and Human Rights Law, as well as Trade and Development.

Preceding my postgraduate studies, I received a Bachelor of Arts in Aboriginal Studies & Sociology from the University of Tasmania, securing Second Class Honours. Beyond coursework, I honed my analytical acumen by actively participating in essay competitions. To round out my educational trajectory, I obtained a Graduate Diploma in Research from the University of Tasmania.
