I am an Educational Psychologist and Higher Education Learning Specialist working with university lecturers and higher education institutions to strengthen teaching practice, learning design, and educator communication in an AI-shaped and rapidly changing educational landscape.

​

My work focuses on how educators can develop as knowledge mentors: supporting students not only in understanding disciplinary content, but in developing critical thinking, interpretation, and the capacity to engage with knowledge in complex and evolving educational contexts.

Working with Higher Education

​

I understand universities as learning ecosystems where knowledge is not only transmitted, but interpreted, shaped, and developed through relationships between educators, students, and disciplines.

​

For more than 20 years, I have worked across Denmark, Australia, and international educational and professional contexts, supporting learning, communication, educator development, and professional capability. Since 2017, I have designed and facilitated workshops, keynote sessions, coaching programmes, and professional learning experiences ranging from short-form sessions to multi-day programmes.

​

Through this work, I have supported university lecturers, educators, and other professionals in strengthening teaching practice, learning design, educator communication, reflective practice, and professional capability. My focus is on helping educators navigate complexity while preserving what makes learning meaningful, relational, and intellectually rigorous.

 

Having lived, studied, and worked across cultures, I bring an international perspective to educator development and higher education. Based in Australia, I collaborate with educators and organisations across Australia, Denmark, and internationally.

Why I write

​

I write because I am deeply interested in how humans learn, become, and make sense of complexity. My writing is an extension of my professional practice. It is a way of refining ideas, exploring connections between disciplines, and contributing to conversations about the future of education.

​

I am particularly drawn to the interconnected nature of knowledge and learning. Across disciplines and perspectives, I see education as an evolving system of meaning-making. A system, that reflects both how we understand the world and how we understand ourselves.

​

Writing allows me to explore these questions in an ongoing way. Not as fixed answers, but as part of a continuous inquiry into how education shapes human development. These interests informed my bestselling book The Hidden Camino, my former writing platform Herstory, and my current international blog.

My work explores learning and teaching in Higher Education:
 

• Educator development and teaching excellence

• Human-centred learning and capability development

• Communication, knowledge transfer, and learning design

• Reflective practice and professional growth

• Intercultural learning and cultural intelligence

• Psychological safety and meaningful engagement

I am particularly interested in how universities and learning environments can remain intellectually rigorous, relational, and human while adapting to technological, cultural, and social change.

 

On Learning and Becoming

​

At the heart of my work is a simple belief: students rarely remember perfect slides or polished lectures. They remember educators who changed how they think, feel, and engage with the world.

​

In my view, learning is not only the transfer of knowledge, but a relational and interpretive process in which students develop the ability to think, question, and engage with knowledge in a meaningful complex way.

 

This is why I understand educators as knowledge mentors: not only transmitting content, but shaping how students relate to knowledge itself. Meaningful learning begins with curiosity, grows through connection, and is deepened through reflection. It has the capacity to transform both individuals and the systems they participate in.
