Spirit Education and Media Pty Ltd
Developing stories, learning resources and media that help people understand one another more deeply.
About SpiritED
Education. Storytelling. Media.
SpiritED – Spirit Education and Media is the company through which I am developing projects that bring together education, storytelling and media.
It draws on my experience in healthcare, teaching, learning design and writing, and my interest in the ways stories can help us understand one another more deeply.
Some ideas are best explored through a book. Others need a conversation, a learning experience or a film. SpiritED provides a home for developing these ideas, choosing the approach that suits the story, its purpose and the people involved.
Areas of development
Story-based learning
Learning resources that connect information with human experience.
My focus is on developing case studies, scenarios and educational narratives that encourage people to think beyond the facts on a page—to consider different perspectives, ask questions and connect learning with practice.
Writing and publishing
Fiction and other writing exploring family, belonging, identity, spirituality and the experiences carried across generations.
This area brings together my own creative work and an interest in carefully considered writing and publishing collaborations.
Documentary and digital media
Exploring opportunities to tell stories through film and digital formats, particularly where health, education and community life intersect.
I am interested in collaborations that give people an active role in how their experiences are represented, with care for both the story and those who share it.
Immersive learning, including virtual reality, is a longer-term interest rather than a current offering.
Working with care
The way a project is developed matters as much as what it produces. I value thoughtful collaboration, clear responsibilities and respect for the people whose experiences inform the work.
Any project involving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, stories or knowledges must be guided by appropriate Indigenous leadership and cultural authority. Participation, consent, ownership, attribution and future use of material need to be agreed from the outset.
Where SpiritED is now
SpiritED is developing its next projects alongside my writing and professional commitments. The areas described here reflect its direction, rather than a catalogue of established programs or products.
Expressions of interest in suitable collaborations are welcome. I am particularly interested in conversations where there is a shared purpose, complementary experience and time to develop the work thoughtfully.
SpiritED is independent of my employment with the Australian Indigenous Doctors’ Association (AIDA).
