This presentation aims to report on a mathematics teacher educator, as she begins her career as an academic within an Australian University setting. The results will include the first author’s reflections on her experiences as a teacher educator since completing her doctoral studies. Vignettes and narrative inquiry will be chosen as the research design used to explore written stories and the teacher educator’s lived experiences. Clarke and Hollingsworth’s framework (2002) will be used to analyse and discuss evidence-based factors and critical reflections that assisted to improve her professional growth as an early career teacher educator.
