BIO

I am a researcher in Risk Science and Civil Systems Engineering. My research examines how hazards and other changes affect interconnected infrastructure, communities and economies, and how we can make better decisions under uncertainty.

 

I work across risk analysis, complex systems, climate adaptation and resilience, combining quantitative modelling with applied research alongside government, industry and communities. A central focus of my work is translating advances in risk science into methods and tools that can improve real-world planning and decision-making.
