I am committed to engagement with the broader community, and regularly disseminate my research to the public through leading media forums, including opinion pieces in The New York Times, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Australian, the Australian Financial Review, and The Conversation. I have appeared as a commentator on national and international media (eg, BBC World Service, 7:30, The Project, Lateline, The Drum, Radio National Breakfast, Radio National’s Drive, and Sky News). I am the co-editor of Australia's leading public law blogging platform, AUSPUBLAW.org, and the www.Indigconlaw.org blog.  

I am the constitutional consultant to the Clerk of the Commonwealth House of Representatives and regularly undertake consultancy work on constitutional issues for governments, parliaments and NGOs.
