Research Portfolio
Here you can view my research portfolio, including relevant works from my days as an undergraduate at Victoria University. Post-graduate work relating to my thesis will be published here after assessment later in 2024, due to privacy requirements. This is also where you can view any research papers or presentations I have given at conferences, and (coming soon) find links to read my work in historical journals.
