Biography
I am a researcher of globalisation, policy mobilities, and education reforms. Currently, I am researching the Sustainable Development Education Goal (SDG4) with overlapping focus on global and national contexts in the Asia Pacific. I have previously worked on various social entrepreneurial policies in education attending specifically to the rising influence of philanthropy and venture capitalism in Developing settings. My research seeks to understand the processes through which education policy moves and shapes in sync with globalisation.
My 2019-PhD in Education was from the University of Queensland, Australia. I also hold a 2013-European MA (EMA) in Lifelong Learning Policy and Management from Deusto University, Spain; and a 2012-MA in Education from Aarhus University, Denmark. I am passionate about understanding the conditions and transformations that globalisation continues to infuse upon education and education policy.
