Biography
I’m a knowledge broker and science communicator for environmental research programs that have many and varied stakeholders, from the boardrooms of Canberra to the small communities of the Kimberley. I really value developing and cultivating rewarding relationships with and between stakeholders and scientists, grounded in trust and credibility, for mutual benefit and environmental outcomes.
I enjoy combining my scientific background with some artistic flair and well-developed intuition to effectively communicate and engage with people in the ways and at the times that they prefer.
