My current role involves understanding the research interests and directions of the researchers inside Data61 (a CSIRO business unit) and attempting to match those interests with the needs of CSIRO's business customers. 

Success for me is when our researchers solve important problems that give our business customers a huge competitive advantage. 

In the past I have had experience solving a wide variety of problems, in domains such as:

Bayesian groundwater modelling for coal bed methane gas.

Demand modelling, pricing and prediction for global seaborne freight. 

Finding patterns in Australian banking data.

Identity resolution for large government databases.

Recommendation systems for student to job matching.

Industrial processing systems analysis for improved performance.

EL ES DE Engineering is a SME with a traditional background in engineering, design & build projects. Having inhouse engineers and boilermakers we specilise in developing products that are buildable.

As the market moves away from more traditional methods we have taken an innovative approach and positioned ourselves for complex projects and products.

We are most proud of our RMB Minegrub http://remoteminibogger.com/rmb/ a remote controlled vehicle used on WA minesites to clean around operating machinery without shutdown and removing a number of HSE issues. Currently one unit is at South32's Worsely operation and the 2nd series will be on Rio Tinto's sites at the end of this year.

Another major achievement for us was the underwater robot we developed which houses a camera used for monitoring coral health without the need for divers. An automatic solution providing consistancy and repeatability whilst removing HSE issues.

Project Leader - Civil

Completed a bachelor of Environmental Engineering from the University of Western Australia in 2004 and qualified as a civil engineer and currently practicing in this field. Has been involved with the design and management of several urban development and infrastructure projects to date.

Particularly focused on sustainable development and finding a way to implement and construct truly sustainable and smart urban development. This will involve integration of skills from various industries, such as energy, transport, planning, hydraulics, mechanical, and electrical fields. A major challenge will be breaking down the traditional barriers associated with planning, approvals, service provision, urban form and governance such that smart, ecologically friendly, socially vibrant and economically viable places can be achieved. Looking for people that share these thoughts and in order to build teams to make it happen.
