Profile
My work is grounded in the view that addressing pressing social issues—such as migrant and refugee labour market integration—is central to advancing management and international business scholarship. By examining the roles of organisations and labour market actors, I seek to better understand how organisational practices, institutional arrangements, and support systems enable or constrain equitable participation in work and society.
My research contributes to international human resource management and international business scholarship by advancing understanding of migrant workforce integration, diversity and inclusion, and the organisational and institutional contexts that shape migrants’ work and career trajectories across national settings.

Current Projects
My current focus in on social cohesion.
I am studying how organisations design and implement recruitment and workplace integration practices for migrants and refugees in Australia. Through this work, I examine how hiring processes, onboarding practices, and organisational support structures can enable more inclusive employment pathways and support the successful integration of migrant and refugee workers.
I am also examining cross-sector collaborations that support migrant and refugee employment. This research explores how partnerships between employers, non-governmental organisations, and community stakeholders can foster stronger social cohesion and create more sustainable pathways to work.
