About me
I do research and consulting for projects and programs of various scales and complexity funded by the industry and government across resource and energy, defence, IT, government sectors, and NGOs in Australia and overseas. I hold PhDs in Project Management and Engineering, Honors in Systems and Mechanical Engineering and worked as a Strategic Program Manager and Project Manager of large-scale public-private initiatives.
I have a diverse applied research portfolio, collaborating with individual businesses, Government, and Mining and Defence organisations. My research expertise spans complex project management, mining value chain and process optimisation, manufacturing and critical mineral supply chain resilience and regional capability development.
My expertise combines Modelling and Simulation, Network Analysis, Structural Equation Modelling (SEM), and Qualitative Research Methods. I have also developed software tools, frameworks, and associated business processes to solve complex problems and assist decision-makers in industry and government.
I am a Member of the Project Management Institute (PMI), the Australian Institute of Project Management (AIPM), Australian and New Zealand Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply. I am an Affiliate Member of the Centre for Enterprise Dynamics in Global Economies (C-EDGE) UniSA, and a Member of the Sustainable Infrastructure and Resources Management Research Concentration.
I hold an Adjunct Senior Research Fellow position at the School of Civil, Environmental and Mining Engineering at The University of Adelaide.
