She has worked in a range of places, including Costa Rica, Indonesia, Aotearoa, and Oceania. Since 2006, she has provided research support to refugee-background communities and refugee-led organisations advocating for educational equity in the tertiary sector, improved service delivery, and more holistic approaches to refugee resettlement in New Zealand.
