BIO
I have a keen interest in implementing sustainability initiatives within our organisations and communities that encourage us to tackle the small problems as well as the big, to dream and believe that we can do better. I have technical, management and governance experience in the non-profit/for purpose and non-government sectors in particular covering science, technology, education and applied sustainability. I choose to work within the higher education sector given the support for participating in the academic mission from research and publications to curricular and extra-curricular activities while still being directly involved with and often responsible for governance (e.g., policy, strategy, plans) and stewardship outcomes (e.g., facilities, operations and services).
