She also serves as an Assistant Editor for the Journal of Embodied Research.  She is the Head of Performing Arts Research and Postgraduate Studies Coordinator at The Hong Kong Academy of Performing Arts

Her research interests focus on embodied experiences, thinking, and practice through making, embodied cognition, and cross-cultural performance at the intersections of both decolonial and feminist theories. She has presented her research and methodology at various international conferences, universities, theatre conservatories and led master workshops for theatre companies. 

As a practicing artist, Elizabeth's works range from site-specific social engagement to cross-cultural | disciplinary performances and to intense black-box physical performances. She has collaborated on many international performance projects with a focus on embodied cultural memories in conjunction with other disciplines and presented them at various prestigious contemporary theatre festivals in South America, Europe, UK, Asia. One such work was her collaboration with two Mexican Artists on a physical piece Re:Inventing Sita. This was supported by the Singapore International Foundation and the Cultural Embassy of Mexico and was presented in two festivals in Mexico, Cervantino International Festival and Caminos Teatrales 7 in 2011 and then here in Singapore. The work was mentioned in SIF inaugural launch of Diversities (www.sif.org/story_details).
