BIO

I am an educator, researcher, and academic leader committed to advancing sustainable and resilient practices in the built environment. My research focuses on construction risk management, circular economy integration, and digital innovation in project delivery; contributions that have been cited over thousands of times globally.

At Deakin University, I take pride in designing and delivering high-quality learning experiences that prepare future construction professionals for a changing industry. Beyond the classroom, I actively contribute to academic governance and service, supporting curriculum development, research mentoring, and industry engagement initiatives.

My work sits at the intersection of theory and real-world application, and I’m always open to collaboration that pushes the boundaries of construction management for societal impact.
