who i am and what I do…
Working at the intersection of systems change and sustainable development, I’m an experienced sustainability strategist, providing advice, analysis and education on the implementation of sustainability practices and frameworks (Sustainable Development Goals. wellbeing indexes, doughnut economics and circular economy in particular).
My ability to build collaborative relationships and collectively design strategies, roadmaps and transformational pathways that drive transformational and generational impact for both people and planet is highly valued. I’m also skilled facilitator and an engaging communicator, regularly commentating and presenting on sustainability issues.
I am a Senior Adviser and Circular Economy Leader for the Australian Fashion Council, a Strategic Advisor to the Development Intelligence Lab and an Associate of Monash Sustainable Development Institute at Monash University. Other clients include federal and state government, businesses and philanthropic organisations and their networks.
My background is in policy development for the federal government, specialising in international development policy (DFAT/AusAID). I hold a Masters in International Development and undergraduate degrees in Arts (International Relations) and Law and I’m a qualified lawyer.
