Sustainability and ESG advisor (social), LEO Pharma. Copenhagen, Denmark.

Project Officer, The Australia-Indonesia Centre

Security Consultant at Security Consulting Group Pty Ltd (SCG)
Bachelor of Criminology
"Cybersecurity is now one of the most recognised and rapidly growing industries, but it is not the only pathway available. My advice is to remain curious and approach every unit with an open mind; even the ones you may not initially believe are relevant to your future."

Associate Consultant in Cultural Heritage & Archaeology at SLR Consulting Ltd / Freelance Archaeological Specialist
"I’ve spent the last eight years working as a freelance archaeologist at the New Kingdom site of Tell el-Amarna in Egypt, directed by Dr. Anna Stevens (who also lectures at Monash). Everything comes right back to the analytical and material analysis skills I mastered during my research degree."
Education and Public Programs Coordinator at the Hellenic Museum
"In my third year, I took a unit called From Alexander to Kleopatra: The rise and fall of the Hellenistic world. He completely changed how I viewed historical storytelling. He presented history as this incredibly dramatic, gossipy, scandalous, Game of Thrones-esque narrative. It was juicy, human, and fascinating. That unit heavily shapes how I work today."

Being able to do this obscure computer programming is common in music, but not in the film world."
Analyst at Austrade
Bachelor of Politics, Philosophy and Economics

I have been able to harness these skills and intersectional way of thinking in my work by offering new ideas on how to analyse complex global challenge"
Composer, Artist and Orchestrator
"I loved the recording studio. In my third and fourth years, I was there almost every day. It operated professionally, and the experience of going from an idea to a recording session, inviting friends and hearing music at high quality was invaluable. My studio teacher encouraged us to be in the space as much as possible. The studios I work in now in LA use the same equipment Monash had, which gave me a strong foundation."
