He has worked extensively within residential and community-based settings, supporting organisations at every stage of service development, from initial design and setup through to governance, training, and continuous improvement.

His experience spans children’s residential services, adult disability supports, and community-based care, giving him a well-rounded perspective on what high-quality, rights-based services look like in practice. He is skilled at translating standards and legislation into workable, person-centred systems that support both compliance and positive outcomes.
