Monica Edwards & Kathlyn Loseby | Sydney Autumn 2022

Parlour POD

Our conversationalists for this episode are Monica Edwards and Kathlyn Loseby. Monica is a Senior Associate architect at SJB and Kathlyn is the CEO of the Architects Accreditation Council of Australia.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Kathlyn and Monica discuss the importance of quality design, sustainable building practices and advocacy for structural reform within the profession. They emphasise the importance of collaboration and continuous professional development, and talk about their family backgrounds and the important choices that have shaped their careers. Tying this all together is the shared desire to work to continually improve the profession, to make change, support others and keep moving forward.
