What does life look for you now?
I started studying a double International Relations and Law degree at the ANU straight after leaving Radford. This degree took 5 years, and then I did International Relations Honours which was another year, and a Graduate Diploma of Legal Practise (a post-grad qualification you need to be able to get admitted as a lawyer). Straight out of Uni I went overseas and worked in International Criminal Law, first for the Office of the International Co-Prosecutor at the United Nations Assistance to the Khmer Rouge Trials in Phnom Penh, and then for the Office of the Prosecutor at the International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia in The Hague. When I came back to Canberra I worked as a lawyer in the community legal sector for a year, and now I work for a Commonwealth agency. I also completed my Master of Laws (LLM) at the University of Melbourne, focusing on international humanitarian law and human rights.
