Biography

I re-joined the ANU in 2015 from the United Kingdom where I was an Associate Fellow of the Royal Institute for International Affairs, London (Chatham House) and a Research Associate of the Global Economic Governance programme at the University of Oxford's Blavatnik School of Government. Before this I worked in the federal public service, an intergovernmental organisation, academia, civil society, the private sector and consulting. Born and educated in Zimbabwe, I hold degrees from South Africa, the United Kingdom, and Australia. I was a Fulbright Scholar (2022) at the University of California, Berkeley.
