Summary
Jo Pall is an environmental scientist at Sydney Water with nine years’ experience blending hands-on catchment management and technical research to deliver nutrient offset programs and WSUD infrastructure in the Hawkesbury-Nepean Catchment. Trained in advanced science and geology at the University of Sydney (with an exchange at McGill), Jo brings a software engineering and machine learning background that informs data-driven environmental decision making. Previously, Jo co-developed BayesReef, a Bayesian inference tool for modeling coral reef development over geological timescales, demonstrating capability in probabilistic modelling and scientific software. At the intersection of field implementation and computational research, Jo translates complex environmental processes into practical monitoring and design solutions. Colleagues value Jo’s ability to move between code, models and on-the-ground delivery, applying rigorous analytical methods to improve water-sensitive urban design outcomes. Based in Sydney, Jo combines domain expertise in geology and water management with a developer’s mindset to tackle long-term ecosystem challenges.
