Biography
I graduated from the Townsville Teachers College with a Diploma of Teaching in 1974. I taught in a number of schools in North Queensland teaching all of the primary grades one through seven. During this time I completed studies in a Bachelor of Education and Master of Education (Special Education). In 1982 I began work in the special education sector of Education Queensland working with students with learning difficulties in regular schools, gifted and talented students, the hearing impaired and with students with moderate and severe intellectual disabilities in segregated special schools. During this period I began studies for a Doctor of Philosophy degree.
