Environmental science was the only field of study that appealed to me and I was encouraged to follow my heart. No doubt growing up in the Perth Hills, was a big part of that choice. I am constantly looking for better ways to do things and I found everywhere I worked, that desire wasn't valued. So after 5 years in another consulting business I started Phoenix so I had the freedom to pursue development initiatives as they arose and in order to provide better service to clients, the environment and the larger community. Establishing Phoenix was best decision I have ever made; It has been an amazing journey so far, we have gone from strength to strength and I love working with such dedicated and like-minded people.
