As RPS’ Executive General Manager for South East Queensland, I lead a multi-disciplinary team of more than 200 urban planners, urban designers, surveyors, landscape architects, economists, cultural heritage experts and others to achieve great outcomes for RPS clients and their projects. Working across RPS’ office locations in Brisbane, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast and Ipswich, I’ve developed strong working relationships with local authorities, state agencies, community stakeholders and business leaders.As a planner, I’ve worked on some of South East Queensland’s landmark new communities including Brightwater, Bellvista, Bells Reach, Boardwalk, Rainforest Sanctuary and Aura. I have also directed the planning for a range of attached residential projects and various retail, institutional, commercial and industrial developments. I’m proud to lead a team that is so dedicated to the delivery of best industry practice – no matter the area of specialisation – and as a local of the Sunshine Coast I’m excited to see my organisation contributing to sustainable outcomes that benefit local communities.
