My areas of recent experience are building defects and their impact on health and safety, urban renewal of redundant strata developments past their best use and economic life using strata renewal collective sales and redevelopment plans, and governance of mixed use stratum titled developments. My work is under-pinned by my research roles at City Futures Research Centre, UNSW Sydney and Deakin University. At City Futures I have an Australian Research Council scholarship to study urban renewal of mixed use developments. I am part of a team researching the phenomena of resident led collective sales. For Deakin University I work on building defect research projects. This work is the culmination of 33 years previously working as a specialist strata lawyer and owning strata management businesses throughout Australia. Show less
