Before joining SHP, Nicola worked at the Australian Racing Museum in curatorial, education and tour-guiding positions, spent four years working at Museum Victoria in public access and research roles and worked as an Assistant Curator on the community-based Water Smart Home project.

As SHP’s Associate Director, Nicola brings a good blend of warmth, strategic thinking and an eye for detail to all projects.
On any Saturday
You’ll probably find Nicola running errands, but if she gets free time she loves bushwalking with her family or relaxing with her cat and a good mystery.
