Hello! I am Mariana.

Welcome to my ePortfolio!

  • International and Global Studies Academic

  • Learning Designer

  • Curriculum Writer

I am a Lecturer and Subject coordinator in International and Global Studies at the University of Technology, Sydney and the University of Technology Sydney College. I have published work in disciplinary areas including International Studies, Popular Music and Identity, Cultural Studies, Foodways and Queer Studies.

I also work as a Learning Designer at PLUS UTS Business Futures where I create learning activities and artifacts (H5P, Articulate360, etc.). In addition to those activities, I have worked on building storyboards, lesson plans, facilitator and student guides and other content materials for CPA and TransportNSW.

Currently, I am completing the design, writing and research of the subject of Teaching and Learning Across Cultures which is part of the Graduate Certificate of Student Centred Learning delivered by UTS College in 2023.

I see difference as something that needs to be celebrated and supported and not a deficit.

My philosophy is: no one is left behind!
