A stakeholder and community engagement specialist with a background in urban and regional planning, Ruby knows the power of engagement to help shape great communities.
A warm and empathetic nature means that Ruby easily connects with people and quickly builds rapport. She is very skilled at recording and synthesising the information garnered from community engagement. This makes her the best kind of engagement practitioner.
Ruby has played a key role in the stakeholder engagement for several major infrastructure projects in Adelaide. These projects include the high-profile Main South Road Duplication, the Ovingham Level Crossing Removal, and the Park ‘N’ Ride facilities at Golden Grove and Paradise.
Ruby focuses on creativity in engagement to attract more participants and create social licence for projects. She also likes to engage often marginalised people to ensure diversity and inclusion. A great example of this is her work with local schools and the Kaurna community. Elevating any project to something more with meaningful stakeholder and community input.
