Additional research interests include: feminist theory, Australian politics, women politicians, media analysis, post-structuralism, critical theory, queer theory, LGBTQIA+ rights and refugee politics.

I am a Research Fellow/Lecturer with the Global Institute for Women's Leadership (GIWL) at the Australian National University (ANU).

Currently, I am working on several research projects, such as analysing the gendered media coverage of women leaders’ response the COVID-19 pandemic or examining the gendered double standards of Murdoch press coverage of political women.

Since May 2019, I am the regular federal political correspondent for Radio Adelaide. I also currently sit on the Executive Board of the International Political Science Association (IPSA) Research Committee on Gender Politics and Policy (RC 19) and am the Social Media Coordinator for both RC19 and the Australian Political Studies Association (APSA) Women’s Caucus.

My research and activism have garnered maintstream media attention, frequently appearing on radio, television and in newspapers.
