Before my PhD on children's independent mobility, I completed my Masters in Urban Design (University of Melbourne) in 1996.
I hold a teacher qualification, Diploma of Education, from Monash University(1982), and a Theology Degree from The Gregorian University in Rome (1979).
I worked for 30 years in school facility planning, most recently as Manager Planning, Catholic Education Melbourne, before retiring in 2016.
I work part-time in my own consultancy in this field now, as well as part-time as a senior fellow position at THUD.
