Unique expertise in Green City strategy & design
The JUST Consultancy services are based on two decades of extensive professional expertise and practical experience in urban development and delivery of Green City strategies, concepts and projects, in Europe, Asia and Australia.
Through the experience of working for multiple municipalities across different geographies I realized how much I enjoy working with people and for people. The ability to listen is an important part of my consultancy style. It inspires an inclusive approach to co-creation, to develop – together – practical, realistic and lasting solutions.
The desire to do meaningful work motivated me to open my consultancy company where I can focus on projects that bring positive change to cities, their residents and environment.
I can do things YOU cannot, you can do things I cannot. TOGETHER we can do GREAT things
