Hi, I’m Melanie – the founder of Future Proof Projects and a sustainability consultant based in Hawke’s Bay.
Originally from the Netherlands, I moved to New Zealand in 2019 and quickly fell in love with the land, the people, and the potential to make a meaningful impact here. With a Master’s degree in Urban Environmental Management and a decade of experience in sustainability, smart city development, and climate strategy, I’ve worked alongside councils, corporates and builders to reduce emissions and future proof their projects.
I specialise in making carbon reduction simple, practical, and achievable - especially for small to medium-sized businesses navigating compliance, tenders, and growing expectations from clients and communities. Whether you’re just starting out or ready to level up your impact, I’m here to guide you every step of the way.
Let’s build something better - together.
