“A highlight from my studies at the University of Wollongong was producing an Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Assessment Report for Windang Island in Shellharbour. I was able to gain experience in site surveying by recording shell middens, stone tools and landforms. I was able to research the history and landscape context of the island, with the purpose of understanding how a proposed walkway would affect potential Aboriginal artefacts on the island. It was really satisfying being able to bring all that research and data together into one succinct and comprehensive report. It’s probably my best work from uni, and something I’m very proud of.”
