About
I have been the Cox Fellow at New College since October 2007. I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of Adelaide in Australia and worked in Melbourne in academic publishing and as a speech writer and advisor for the Governor of Victoria. In 2003 I came to Oxford on a Rhodes Scholarship. My DPhil research focussed on academic networks in the British World, 1890-1940. I am currently a non-stipendiary lecturer at Corpus Christi College where I teach British, Imperial and Global history in the 19th and 20th centuries.
In July 2010 I will be organising a two-day workshop at Wadham College, Oxford, titled: Scholarly Networks in the British Empire: transnational and imperial connections after 1850. For more information including a CFP visit

I also co-convene the Oxford Transnational and Global History Seminar. See www.history.ox.ac.uk/transnational/
