Before embarking on an academic career, Anne was the Managing Director of a chain of
highly successful small businesses in Queensland and New South Wales. This experience
encouraged a personal interest in the Asian region and recognition of the importance of
Australia's near neighbours for business, political and cultural growth. Anne spent
several years living in Indonesia establishing close contacts in the Jakarta business,
political, and academic communities. 

In 2002 Anne led a World Bank funded project to retrain mid-career Diplomats from the
Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in Hanoi, Vietnam. She has maintained close
contact with business and political elite in Vietnam and consulted with many businesses
seeking opportunities and in operation there. The business and political relationships in
Vietnam now have a large influence in Anne's research interests.
