Jodie has an extensive background in urban and regional planning, environmental research, policy development and environmental impact assessment. In Norfolk Island, Jodie has worked on waste management, climate change vulnerability assessment, natural and cultural heritage management, population policy, development control, tourism strategies, infrastructure planning; and sustainable planning and land use management.

Living in a small remote island has enabled her to gain hands on knowledge and experience to contribute to practical solutions for sustainable environmental management in similar communities.
