Overview

Prior to joining UNSW, I worked as the Director of the Business and Human Rights program at the Lawyers Committee for Human Rights (now Human Rights First) in the USA. My work involved examining the human rights issues relevant to business and advising both companies and non governmental organisations on effective strategies to protect human rights in the corporate sphere. During this time, I worked closely with the United Nations on a number of business and human rights initiatives. I have also worked in both public interest and private legal practices.

My research interests are in international human rights law and corporate responsibility and accountability for human rights.

I am the Deputy Director of the Australian Human Rights Centre, UNSW.
