As a Level Lead on the Allianz Stadium redevelopment at Cox Architecture, I was entrusted with overseeing the design development, documentation, and on-site delivery of the stadium’s primary public levels. Working closely with a multidisciplinary team and key consultants, my role involved translating the stadium’s vision — one rooted in global best practice, urban sensitivity, and fan experience — into constructible reality.

From refining design details and coordinating building services, to ensuring compliance with building regulations and standards, I navigated the complexities of multiple stakeholders and a dynamic construction environment. This included orchestrating alignment between teams of project architect and interior lead, engineers, contractors, and specialist consultants to maintain design integrity while meeting budget, schedule, and sustainability objectives, during the peak of the pandemic.

Throughout the process, I actively engaged with design and documentation quality reviews to ensure the execution of design intent and uphold best practice standards. By bridging the gap between conceptual ambition and practical implementation, I contributed to a built environment that enhances the stadium’s ‘fans - first’ principles, integrates seamlessly with its parkland context, and reflects the rich character and evolving legacy of this landmark Sydney precinct.
