A brief period as a programmer/analyst working for NCR Pty Ltd., from 1973 to 1978, was followed with completion of an undergraduate degree in Commerce at the University of Newcastle. An undergraduate honours year was then completed part-time while working as an accountant at Seco Titan Pty Ltd.
An offer was then received to work as a senior tutor while completing a Masters in Economics at the ANU and this was accepted in 1986.
This resulted in a major career change. A range of academic positions followed at the ANU, University of Queensland and RMIT University. Research interests include mutual fund performance, trading behavior, corporate finance and governance, asset and derivative pricing and portfolio theory.
This research work has been published in internationally recognized journals and is linked with range of external grants including ARC discovery grants.
