What’s your role at Modscape and what do you love about it?
I’m a Project Manager, which I love thanks to the diverse range of project Modscape offers – from bespoke architecturally designed homes to complex commercial projects, right across Australia.
What inspired you to start a career in the built environment?
My dad worked in the industry, so from an early age I had exposure to all facets of construction and my passion grew from there.
Any advice you would give to anyone starting out?
There are a lot of talented and experienced leaders in the industry. I’ve always found the best way to improve and grow is through observing how these leaders operate and incorporate that into my own day-to-day role.
Most memorable project you’ve worked on so far?
The current project we’re undertaking with our client, Qbuild. Modscape are assisting the Qbuild team with an ‘uplift’ programme, which aims to upskill trainees and apprentices in QLD and further promote the benefits of modern methods of construction in Australia.
Would you rather meet your ancestors or descendants?
Ancestors. I recently signed up to ancestory.com to find out about my family history which spans back to the early 1600s in Northhamptonshire, England.
What’s the best concert you’ve been to?
Embarrassingly, the only concert I have ever been to is for Drake in 2019 – so that would be the best!
If you were stuck on an island what three things would you bring?
Moreton bay bugs, brioche rolls, and Kewpie mayonnaise.
