This includes a wide range of strategic planning, infrastructure planning and coordination, public sector governance, land use planning, urban financing, housing, sustainability, economic development policy and international coordination. I love leading multi-disciplinary project teams and bringing people together to collaboratively solve complex urban and infrastructure challenges.For the last 4 years, I've worked as a senior advisor on the Victorian State Government's Suburban Rail Loop Project, leading a wide range of urban policy research, analysis and infrastructure planning for the precincts.
