Lucy loves plants. Or more to the point Lucy loves native plants. Or even more precisely Lucy loves helping to improve our native environment: surveying, mapping and modelling where our native plants are and should be. She patiently wades through legislative, environmental and development constraints to maximise outcomes for native habitat. On the weekends Lucy likes exploring local parks and trails with family and dog in tow, finishing the day with a nice wine.

Niva is a passionate researcher! She likes nothing better than to get into some nice data from a satellite to help it tell its story. With over 15 years as a researcher she has undertaken projects in Africa, Australia and India, looking at problems in natural resources and agriculture. Terms like UAV, Lidar, NDVI, hyperspectral and SAVI are part of Niva’s language these days and she loves it.
Hanieh is passionate about spatial sciences and how they can enhance decisions and deliver scalable, practical and cost-effective solutions. Her scientific training in agriculture, soils and GIS brings a depth and breadth of knowledge from which problems can be understood and solved. She likes to roll with the punches, testing new ideas when old ones pull up short.
Jeremy is passionate about the achievement of net positive outcomes for nature. His interests are at the intersection of ecology, biodiversity conservation and environmental policy. With 14 years’ in the private sector and academia, Jeremy knows the big picture – global to local environmental frameworks – and helps solve problems on the ground with this context in mind. He is particularly interested in the achievement of best-practice outcomes from approaches like offsetting, and always strives to embed the latest science in the pursuit of great outcomes.
Rob has over 30 years’ experience working with spatial information and delivering strategic conservation planning outcomes. A specialist in environmental assessment and analysis; he uses the science of “where” to build spatial relationships to tell a story and guide a path through complex problems.

Mark is a River Scientist. He loves rivers and catchments and during his undergraduate years he realised he wanted to work with rivers for ever (or at least a long time). Luckily for Mark and 2rog the dream was realised. Mark has been a river scientist in government, university and consulting for over 18 years now. He has been involved in research, teaching and consulting. Mark really wants to help make our rivers and catchments healthy and productive.
Bronwyn has over 20 years’ experience working in natural resource management, strategic planning and monitoring and evaluation program development. She draws upon her knowledge in agricultural science, people and communities to solve wicked problems. With relentless energy she persists until the job is done. Engaging with people, she seeks ideas from all perspectives.
Ailsa solves complex environmental problems. This includes: translating complex scientific information into robust environmental policy; large impact assessments; and detailed academic research into how stressors operate in the marine environment. Ailsa loves building vibrant teams to achieve positive and balanced outcomes both for people and the environment. And she always enjoys having a cheeky joke along the way.
Julian has over 30 years’ experience in scientific research and consulting. An innovative thinker he has specialist expertise in ecological condition assessment, monitoring, and impact and risk analysis. He uses analytical techniques to help solve landscape scale problems. With Julian you can expect detailed solutions. When the cogs are whirring give them some space – the wait will be worth it.
