I was lucky to work on some really interesting tasks during my clerkship. This included doing some work for Natasha Blycha on the Australian National Blockchain project, and drafting research notes on various topics, such as the GDPR and ‘Right to be Forgotten’.

I work on a broad range of projects including public transport infrastructure such as train stations and car parks, renewable energy facilities, major highway upgrades, housing developments, and road safety audits of existing road networks.
