Sheelagh Daniels-Mayes, PhD, is a Lecturer in the Faculty of Arts Indigenous Studies Program at the University of Melbourne. She is a Gamilaraay woman who became vision impaired after having measles as a child. Her PhD of 2016 investigated how to successfully teach Aboriginal students. Her current work is framed within Indigenous Knowledge and draws on her previous studies of education, psychology, sociology and criminology. She is passionate about higher education as a means of empowering disenfranchised and under-served people and communities. Before entering academia, she worked with the National Disability Insurance Scheme, the Adelaide City Council Access and Inclusion Panel, the South Australian Minister’s Disability Advisory Committee, the New South Wales Department of Corrective Services, the AIDS Council of New South Wales, the Salvation Army, and the Oasis Youth Support Network. This week, she was awarded her first project grant from the Australian Research Council with Aaron Corn and Anthea Skinner, which aims to improve life outcomes for Indigenous people living with a disability through university education.
