  • Tristan Angelini on Constructing You - Making an Impact in Residential Construction

    Tristan Angelini is the Managing Director of Hillbrook Projects. Tristan Angelini's love of design, construction, and property development began decades ago with inspiration from his grandfather, a carpenter from Italy. Channelling this passion into his work, Tristan has spent the last 20 years gaining experience across the logistics and building industries.

    In 2008, Tristan founded Hillbrook Projects - a building and development company specialising in innovative commercial, residential, and custom builds in Victoria. Over the past 14 years, Tristan has established Hillbrook's reputation for providing premium, reliable construction services that bring an immersive and accessible approach to urban and regional developments. Tristan has a particular interest in developing quality Specialist Disability Accommodation and rooming houses, completing many such projects and achieving the objective of enriching local communities.

    After growing up in Werribee, attending school in Geelong, and expanding Hillbrook into Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula, Tristan has an appreciation for the changing needs of regional Victoria. Currently based in Melbourne, Tristan maintains a deep local knowledge of the wider Victorian market.

    Tristan's vision for the future is simple – elevate the standards of what a modern approach to development looks like, and have fun doing it.

  • Young Gun Miranda Swift on Constructing You - Being Humble but Hungry, Opening New Doors

    With an unmatched passion for the world of construction, Miranda's willingness to help others has created this remarkable drive to be a champion for change. She is currently studying a double degree to attain her Bachelor and Master of Civil Engineering at Charles Sturt University whilst working as one of Northrop's first ever Cadet engineers in Newcastle.

    Miranda's strong ability to think innovatively has allowed her to lead her team in a Green Street Design. Working with regional councils on a new tree planting method to reduce carbon emissions and retain water during extreme climate changes.

    As an Engineers Australia scholar, Miranda has co-created a unique program that takes a new approach on mentoring. Since the official launch in November, 'Hustle' has created waves within the industry and caught the eye of major organisations including the Australian Government and NSW Department of Education. The program is on track to be launched nationally in the next twelve months.

    Miranda has been working in the industry since the age of sixteen and learned to use AutoCAD before learning to drive a car. She has worked with distance education NSW to mentor young students who feel isolated and presented her journey in front of hundreds of high school students state wide.

    At twenty-one, she is currently in partnership with an Australian Workwear company to collaborate an office wear line for young women to make them feel like they can do anything and will be soon launching a blog to encompass all that is her incredible career so far.

    Now, after being named the 2022 Generate Property Scholarship winner at the NSW NAWIC 2022 awards of excellence, Miranda has caused waves in the world of construction and is in collaboration with Lang O'Rourke in establishing a scholarship program for young regional girls to kick start their career in construction and follow in her footsteps.

  • Response to Industry

    🚨This is my response to claims by a senior executive in the Melbourne construction industry perpetrating that I am scamming young people for their money and running something short of a pyramid scheme. 🚨 The failure to see mentoring and coaching as a viable business is the conditioning of the individual. I imagine they'd prefer I have a soul-sucking job following convention like most. Yet, the industry has little issue with builders not fairly paying subcontractors, or project personnel using client money to pay for their home renovations, both which fall under the definition of scamming, which is to swindle. Because the collective conditioning has accepted that. It's those who think they're so intellectual and logical that display the least amount of either. I have provided an extended response on the latest episode of my podcast, for those who seek to understand before concluding.
