​Feasibility, Strategic & Operational Planning

​

Successfully opening a new attraction requires a blend of skills, experience and character traits.  Strategic planning and project management skills ensure seamless execution within defined timelines and budgets, along with operations expertise to ensure everything runs smoothly when doors open. Additionally, an entrepreneurial spirit, unwavering determination, a sense or fun and a passion for creating memorable experiences are essential. 

​

Over the last year I have partnered with Great Ocean Road Coast and Parks Authority and Development Victoria to provide strategic and operational advice on the new Twelve Apostles Visitor Centre, planned to open in late 2026.

 

I have also been honoured to be part of opening some of the world's best attractions, including: 

•  The St Louis Aquarium at Union Station (1 million visitation yearly), The Green Planet Dubai (600,000 visitation yearly), The Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo (1,300,000 visitation yearly), Yas Waterworld Abu Dhabi (700,000 visitation yearly) and Melbourne Aquarium (700,000 visitation yearly) .
