About Vicki-Ann
What began as a fascination with earthquakes and the forces shaping our planet evolved into a career in seismic hazard and engineering geology.
Today, through OzRocks Geoservices, I help engineers, dam owners and asset managers understand risk, navigate uncertainty and move forward with confidence.
Understanding Seismic Risk. Supporting Better Decisions.
Specialist seismic hazard and engineering geology advice for dams, mining and critical infrastructure.
Helping owners, engineers and asset managers understand risk, navigate uncertainty and move forward with confidence.
Every project starts with a question
What earthquake loading should I use?
→ Understand the Risk
What should we do next?
→ Strategic Advice
Can I trust this assessment?
→ Independent Review
Helping people answer difficult questions about risk and uncertainty.
Does this satisfy ANCOLD requirements?
→ Meet Requirements
From Uncertainty to Action
Every project starts with uncertainty.
A new dam. An existing asset. A risk assessment. A peer review. A design decision.
The questions may be different, but the challenge is often the same.
What does this mean and what should happen next?
Seismic hazard assessments don’t make decisions. People do.
OzRocks helps dam owners, engineers and asset managers understand the information, navigate uncertainty and make informed decisions with confidence.
The tools may be different. The destination is the same.
Understanding risk. Supporting better decisions.
Why Trust OzRocks?
Experience matters.
Not because every project is the same.
Because every project is different.
Different assets. Different geology. Different risks. Different questions.
The challenge is understanding what matters and what should happen next.
Experience provides context.
Context supports judgement.
Good judgement supports better decisions.
That's why clients engage OzRocks.

Every project starts with a question.
If you have a dam safety challenge, need an independent review, or simply want to discuss a project, let's start with a conversation.
