State Member for Keppel
Queensland ParliamentState Member for Keppel
Jan. 2015 - Oct. 2024In January 2015 I was elected as the State Member for Keppel in the Queensland Parliament. I have a big vision and ideas for the region. I want to work to help the Keppel electorate to flourish – jobs, tourism, developing new industries and diversifying our local economy, keeping young people in our region as well as maintaining and protecting the lifestyle we have been fortunate enough to enjoy. The LNP’s cuts to jobs and services in our community and forcing higher power bills have made things tougher for families living in Rockhampton and the Capricorn Coast. I am passionate about this community. I have the energy and experience to make sure we have a strong voice representing our community and to ensure Keppel gets a better deal. I am active in the community, working for organisations that make a real difference to locals. In my spare time I enjoy fishing and boating around Keppel Bay and the Whitsundays. I thoroughly enjoy traveling, both within Australia and overseas. I have spent time traveling around Europe, USA, United Kingdom, Indonesia, Japan and India. I enjoy travel that involves new historical and cultural experiences. I am an avid sportswoman, having been involved in the Rockhampton Netball Association for ten years. Throughout my time I have played and umpired regularly and coached a junior team. I have also been involved in women's cricket, debating, public speaking competitions and community service work for World Vision and Amnesty International.

Team Leader, Planning Services, Community Engagement & Approvals (Associate)
CQG ConsultingTeam Leader, Planning Services, Community Engagement & Approvals (Associate)
Jan. 2011 - Feb. 2015Rockhampton, QueenslandI was the Team Leader of the Planning Services section at CQG Consulting. I provided planning advice on a range of different projects being progressed through a range of different approval processes, including Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) requiring both State and Federal Government approval for. I have also prepared, lodged and managed IDAS development applications across Queensland including multi-unit dwellings, mixed-use commercial and residential developments, extractive industry, worker’s accommodation, Environmentally Relevant Activities, industrial uses including service stations and mining support operations. A large part of my role involved the understanding and ability to interpret a variety of local, state and federal legislation including the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (Qld), the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conversation Act 1999 (Cth), the Dangerous Goods Safety Management Act 2001 (Qld), the Environmental Protection Act 1994 (Qld), and the State Development and Public Works Organisation Act 1971 (Qld).
Town Planner
Project Services, Department of Public WorksTown Planner
Jun. 2009 - Aug. 2010Brisbane, QueenslandI was previously employed as a planner with the Queensland State Government. My role involved the project management, statutory planning and community engagement for community infrastructure projects such as schools, emergency services and social housing as well as the provision of technical advice and reports. I worked within a multi-disciplinary team of professionals to deliver projects from the design stage up to construction. In this role I was often required to carry out public notification and stakeholder consultation for various community infrastructure and social housing projects as well as policy formation and strategic planning. The Australian Federal Government invested some $4.2 billion for social housing as part of a Nation Building and Economic Stimulus Package that I was involved in the planning and delivery of. This resulted in thousands of new social housing development projects and over my time with Project Services, I managed the planning of hundreds of these projects. The social housing development projects I managed ranged in size between single, one-storey houses to large, multi-unit dwellings with up to 25 units. At any one time I was managing between 10 and 15 social housing projects. Community infrastructure projects, which I managed, included a courthouse, a police headquarters, a police station, a school, a dental clinic and the refurbishment and extension of a hospital. The community infrastructure designation process involved the investigation of environmental issues, community consultation, community need, heritage, native title, amenity, traffic and transport, legislation, land use and more. Whilst the planning and project management of social housing projects was a large part of my role at Project Services, I also took part in the provision of social housing policy development throughout my time here. Policy particularly with regards to social housing design and also the location of social housing in the community was considered.
Town Planner
Craven Ovenden Town PlanningTown Planner
Nov. 2007 - Jun. 2009Whilst employed at Craven Ovenden Town Planning I was involved in preparing development applications, gaming and liquor licensing applications and providing town planning advice to clients. I was involved in preparing development applications for a range of land uses including residential, commercial, industrial and mixed-use developments. I was also required to provide town planning advice to clients with regards to a variety of matters, including highest and best use advice, road resumption advice, heritage and demolition matters, native title and planning law advice. Development applications ranged in size, from the demolition of a house and subdivisions of land from one lot in to two to large, multi-unit developments involving up to 25 units; multi-storey mixed-use residential and commercial developments and structure planning for a large multi-lot subdivision. Part of the business involves representation in the Queensland Planning and Environment Court. One Director, Greg Ovenden, represents clients as an expert witness in planning appeals before the court and so I was often required to assist in the preparation of expert witness statements, attend court, liaise with clients on legal matters and attend negotiation and mediation sessions. I was also involved in social impact assessments which involved investigating a community’s risk to alcohol and gambling addictions given the demographic composition of the community, access to social services, location of the proposed license and proximity to sensitive land uses. Key demographic indicators, based on alcoholism and gaming addiction research, including race, employment, income, age and occupation were analysed. A detailed community consultation is also undertaken whereby local residents, businesses, community groups, social services and community leaders are consulted.
