Digital transformation expert delivering enterprise architecture for New Zealand Government and a city-scale Auckland Transport Digital Twin.
What I'm looking for
At Auckland Transport, I designed and delivered a city-scale Digital Twin of Auckland’s transport network using IoT, real-time analytics, and predictive modelling. It achieved 27% congestion reduction, 33% fewer accidents, and 35% higher public transport use.
For New Zealand Government, I operationalised the GEA-NZ Enterprise Architecture Framework across agencies, delivering $120M in savings over five years. I also bring hands-on experience in enterprise data governance, legacy modernisation, and AI/ML adoption across government, energy, transport, healthcare, and insurance.
