Partnerships
My own expertise and experience (more under About me), is enhanced through partnerships with professionals from diverse backgrounds, including archaeology, linguistics, training and mediation.
In partnership with experienced archaeologists and historians I am able to satisfy most cultural heritage research needs. I have links with female anthropologists and mediators in cases where gender balance is important and I conduct most cultural awareness training in partnership with experienced Aboriginal facilitators.
