Profile

Prior to joining the Adult Migrant English Program (AMEP) Longitudinal Study Project as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow, Charlotte completed her Ph.D. in Anthropology at La Trobe University. Her thesis examines the relationship between historical memory, social spaces, and the processes of identity construction among ethnic Chinese youth in post-Suharto Indonesia. Outside of her immediate doctoral project, Charlotte is also interested in issues of immigration and social inclusion (specifically in Indonesia and Australia), and she has worked as a researcher in various projects that deal with these themes. Having worked as a Lecturer and Tutor at Monash and La Trobe Universities in Melbourne, Charlotte also has a strong teaching portfolio.

In the AMEP LTS project, Charlotte aims to look at the relationship between language training, settlement success, as well as settlement strategies among new adult migrants in Australia. Her tasks include ethnographic data collection, analysis and interpretation, and the production of relevant publications.
