Profile

Having worked with student accommodation providers and educational institutions for more than a decade, I am extremely passionate about the export potential of Australia’s higher education sector.

I also have a keen interest in the health industry, advising on complex site acquisition and development arrangements for hospital and day surgery projects in South Australia.

Drawing on my intimate knowledge of clients’ businesses and the industries in which they operate, I offer pragmatic and practical advice they can trust.
