What drives you? My passion for using business as a force for good. I love working with the team at Ndevr Environment as it’s aligned with one of my life mottos: “I’m on a mission to save the planet from global warming one tCO2e at a time”, here at Ndevr I can leverage on this to have a much greater impact.

What projects do you work on that you love or are most passionate about and why?Carbon neutrality: because it’s an important first step that organisations make. It allows companies to do business while no doing harm, and it’s an important educational piece to continue deepen the climate action journey
Science-based targets: because it’s a meaningful action that companies can take to be aligned with the Paris Agreement and, therefore, keep global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

Career highlight/game changing project/something that made a big impact: Business cases for the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads: determined and modelled the viability of 15+ identified transport, infrastructure and organisational initiatives to inform the development of the Net Zero Roadmap of the department. If implemented altogether, these initiatives have the potential to avoid around 215 millions tCO2e.
