I am intereste in connecting researchers with the broader community - including business leaders and policy makers- to improve general awareness of Australia's achievements in science and engineering research and why this is relevant and necessary for our future economic and social wellbeing. I would like to meet both researchers and professional staff interested in engaging with the public and participating in our national efforts to change community perceptions about sceince and engineering research in order to position reseach at the heart of the innovation ecosystem.

The Antarctic Climate and Ecosystems CRC is Australia's primary vehicle for understanding the role of the Antarctic region in the global climate system, and the implications for marine ecosystems. Our purpose is to provide governments and industry with accurate, timely and actionable information on climate change and its likely impacts.

The Climate Futures Group bridges the gap between fundamental climate science and the local adaptation needs of Australian industries, government agencies and communities.

We work in close consultation with industry and government agencies around Australia to develop targeted, fine-scale climate model projections to support operational decision making. Our clients include emergency services, hydroelectric companies, agricultural producers, alpine resort operators, forestry managers, wine makers and aquaculture producers. Our work draws on the collective expertise of world-leading climate scientists from across multiple agencies, including advisors to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Chage (IPCC).   Climate change will be a determining factor in the life of Australians for many years to come, influencing our prosperity to the tune of billions of dollars annually.  The work of Climate Futures is helping to ensure that Australia is well prepared for the future.

My research translates global climate science into useful, usable tools for operational and strategic decision makers in industry and government, with a particular interest in scenario stress testing of organisational strategy.  

I have experience working with industries such as: agriculture (Wine Australia), utilities (Hydro Tasmania, TasNetworks), emergency services (Tasmania Fire Service, Tasmania State Emergency Service), and tourism (the Victorian Alpine Resorts Coordinating Council). 

In each case, our capacity to transform the broad-scale global climate model outputs into fine-scale regional climate projections was critical to producing outputs of direct relevance and utility to our stakeholders.  The final outputs are carefully designed with input from stakeholders at the beginning of each project, with ongoing input through the project to mould research outputs and products to be fit for purpose. 

I am open to all new opportunities from any industry or sector, with specific interest in agriculture, utilities operations and management, as well as emergency services.
