I am an expert in classical antiquities, archaeology, including ancient Greek and Roman coinage, Greek vase painting and antiquities in paintings. I have undertaken research and publication for academic and popular audiences.

As an antiquities curator, I have conducted curatorial work and exhibition curation. I am presently Curatorial Director, Toula Museum of Australia Inc. (Lebanese village culture and Lebanon in antiquity). I have undertaken curatorial work at the Nicholson Museum (now the Nicholson Collection, Chau Chak Wing Museum) (The University of Sydney), The Australian Institute of Archaeology, Melbourne, and the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney.

I have conceived and led public art walks of Sydney for Sydney Living Museums (Historic Houses Trust of NSW).

I have undertaken public lectures, undergraduate lectures, continuing education teaching, and research supervision.

I have been an editor of academic and popular publications.

I have been a conference convenor and I have administrative skills as a committee member and treasurer.
