After leaving a career in the IT industry as an Analyst / Programmer she began teaching programming at her local TAFE. The joy that she discovered teaching, combined with a passion for problem solving and computer science, has led to involvement in a variety of teaching and project-based roles. She is currently working at the University of Melbourne on the year 12 subject, VCE Algorithmics (HESS) and hopes to continue working to build student understanding in computer science by developing new resources for the Digital Technologies curriculum.
