Strategic leader in real estate and urban development with nearly 20 years of experience and dual PhDs in Architecture and Sociology. Recognised as a forward-thinking practitioner and thought leader in shaping people-centred, purpose-led approaches to complex urban challenges.

As Global Director of Social Impact at Avison Young, I work at the intersection of social impact, commercial strategy and city-making - driving systemic change through innovation, interdisciplinary thinking and actionable insight. My work focuses on aligning business success with positive environmental and social outcomes, with a particular strength in convening cross-sector partners to advance healthier, more sustainable and resilient places.

Over the years, I've contributed to the industry, not only as a practitioner, but also as a co-chair, moderator and co-author of reports for respected bodies, influencing discourse and policy across the built environment.

I continue to be committed to promoting and leveraging the power of collaboration - across public, private and civic sectors - to help shape the future of cities.
