Influential work
- Co-led the evaluation of a multi-billion-dollar Commonwealth disaster recovery investment, with findings informing the Commonwealth's approach to its role in emergency management and disaster recovery funding

- Managed the formative evaluation of a coordinated care pilot for people with chronic conditions, where interim findings led a cross-government delivery group to improve the model during implementation
- Evaluated a youth justice co-responder program, building a statistical modelling dashboard that enabled the client to track offending behaviour and assess program outcomes in near real time
- Developed a virtual care strategy for a state health system, positioning digital models of care within existing service delivery pathways
