Research Overview
I am interested in the study of Recognition Memory. In my PhD work (supervised by Dr Kerry Chalmers and Dr Andrew Heathcote) I studied the effects of different lexical characteristics of words and nonwords (word frequency, nonword pronounceability, and neighbourhood density), as well as the effects of different encoding tasks (free study, lexical decision, and naming), on recognition memory. Currently I am working with Dr Simon Dennis and Dr John Dunn trying to distinguish between the single- and dual-process accounts of recognition memory using ERPs.

Outside Interests & Qualifications
I am an avid scuba diver and am currently a PADI certified Assistant Instructor. When I'm not diving, I also enjoy camping and 4WD adventures.
Here are a couple of pics from my dive on the weekend...
