She is the immediate past chair of the Planning & Environment Committee of the Queensland Law Society and she has represented the Society in negotiations and submissions with the State Government on planning and environmental law reform for over a decade.  She acts as both legal advisor and service member of the Queensland Resources Council, for example, she acted for the QRC in the Commission of Inquiry relating to Queensland’s 2010-11 floods.  Her experience on behalf of these (and other) peak industry groups, combined with her long history of advising the Queensland Government on legislative and policy changes, is particularly relevant to her recognition at the ‘cutting edge’.   In addition, she has lectured the environmental law component of the mining and petroleum law subject for the University of Queensland in 2007 and 2009, and she was previously Queensland editor of the National Environmental Law Review for 6 years.
