Project Officer
Roger is a qualified teacher with over 25 years of experience in both primary and secondary schools, having taught all grades from 1 -10. He has been a teacher of inclusive support, assumed leadership roles in pastoral care and curriculum development and had the privilege of being a school leader.
Roger has taught many children on the spectrum and worked closely with families to create school and classroom environments as well as learning programs and plans, that are inclusive and catered to the broad individual needs of children.
He combines this experience with the vast knowledge and resources of Autism Tasmania to tailor training and workshops for families, carers, disability support workers, schools and workplaces.
Autism Tasmania acknowledges the Australian Aboriginal people as the first inhabitants of the nation and the traditional custodians of the lands where we live, learn, and work. 
Our logo symbolises the rare native Tasmania orchid (Thelymitra or sun orchid). This fascinating plant is a significant part of the flora of Tasmania. It's flowers are blue, pink, or yellow. This logo inspires our mission. Just like the autism community, this extraordinary plant blooms "only when the conditions are right!"
