I am a senior lecturer at the University of Melbourne's Graduate School of Education. My research addresses the question of who flourishes and why. More specifically, my research focuses on: (a) understanding and measuring healthy functioning, (b) investigating psychosocial processes underlying health over time, (c) big data approaches to psychological study, and (d) whole school approaches to wellbeing. I incorporate a lifespan perspective, innovative quantitative methods, and interdisciplinary collaboration throughout my research.
