Role in LCA:

I am an active LCA practitioner at thinkstep-anz, where I have been working for the past three years. I'm also currently studying a Masters in Sustainability, Science, Policy, and Society at the University of Maastricht in the Netherlands. I have experience in producing Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), LCAs, and corporate carbon footprints. I am particularly interested in helping companies identify their emissions hotspots and plan on how to reduce these in the most effective way possible.

I have produced two critically-reviewed comparative LCA studies (for shellfish and packaging) which follow ISO standards 14040, 14044, and 14067. Full reports of these studies can be found on the thinkstep-anz website. I have also undertaken analysis of the carbon footprint of the tourism and construction material sectors, which included Economic Input-Output analysis.
