Born in the Riverlands of South Australia and shaped by the landscapes of country Victoria and South East Queensland, my career has been defined by a singular focus: pushing the envelope and adding tangible value to every themed attraction I touch.

What began as a childhood ambition to master the complexities of theme park design has evolved into an eleven-year career delivering landmark attractions.

My five years at the University of Queensland completing my Master of Architecture served as the defining foundation of my career. This included a "year out" in practice at S2F, a firm which specialised in healthcare and laboratory architecture. I’ve chosen to apply that rigor to the specialized field of attraction design and project delivery rather than traditional registration. It ensures that every "blue sky" concept I develop today is grounded in design integrity, structural safety, and operational feasibility.

My tenure within the Group Projects department at Village Roadshow Theme Parks provided an invaluable "client-side" lens. By being involved in virtually every major build or master plan across the portfolio, I gained deep exposure to the entire lifecycle of an attraction—from initial feasibility and stakeholder management to construction and the ultimate guest experience. This period was fundamentally about the art of "making stuff happen" at scale.

Joining Pico Play further allowed me to bridge the gap between visionary design and the technical "nitty-gritty" of international fabrication. Leading projects across Australia and abroad, I have specialized in balancing ambitious creative goals with the logistical realities of in-house fabrication facilities across three countries.

Beyond the studio, one of the great passions in my life is exploration. While many Australians wait for retirement to become “grey nomads,” I was determined not to wait that long. I’ve spent years traversing our own backyard—from the rugged coast of Exmouth to the alpine air of Tumut and the dramatic peaks of the Warrumbungles—photographically documenting the scale and character of the Australian landscape along the way.

Of course, this industry runs in my blood. For me, a trip abroad is never just a vacation; it’s an essential opportunity to benchmark the world's greatest theme parks. I am constantly fascinated by the ways the best in the world innovate, and I am driven to bring that global standard home to Australia.
