Kristianna is a recent addition to RBA, joining the practice in 2023. Her love for heritage grew from an interest in history into her full-time passion.

Kristianna is a strong proponent of public history. Her thesis work focused on unpacking the dark histories of public spaces and the ways in which the public understands, interprets, and identifies with those histories. Her passion has continued to shape her professional career, beginning in journalism and continuing with her work in heritage.

She is currently a Heritage Consultant at RBA and in her spare time, serves on the Heritage Advisory Committee for the City of Yarra and is closely involved with the Professional Historians’ Association.
