With a background in urban planning and public history, I have worked in public and private sector heritage management and conservation for 20+ years. I am a regular contributor to public conversations about history and heritage, and committed to ensuring community values, history and heritage are recognised and meaningfully embedded as part our everyday experiences of places. I am a sessional lecturer at UNSW, and a board member of Ausheritage, Museums of History NSW and the Greater Sydney Parklands Trust.
