As the newest member of the Brighta Consulting whānau, I have a lot to be excited about and thankful for. Despite the enormous changes taking place in the Resource Management world, there are great people to work with and opportunities for growth, resilience, and progress to embrace. I wanted to take a moment to share a bit about me and how I became a Strategic Environmental Consultant with Brighta.

I spend a lot of time thinking about efficiencies that can be gained in council’s resource consent processes. Probably too much time!

With the spotlight on ‘red tape’, and overhauling the RMA (again), we can be distracted from the day-to-day realities for how resource consents play out on the ground.
