Location Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
Introduction I am a Lecturer in Social Science at RMIT University with particular expertise in teaching research methods. I have recently completed a PhD on young people's pathways in and out of problematic substance use. Prior to my current appointment I worked as a Research Fellow at the Youth Support + Advocacy Service (YSAS). My research interests are youth, substance abuse, early intervention, class, gender, masculinities, state care, self-injury and research ethics. Views are all my own. I like yoga, running, dance, anatomy, friends, feminism and coffee. www.twitter.com/Kat_Daley
