After graduating from Frankston High School in 2011 and later RMIT University, Tom Debenham, trained landscape architect, has collaboratively delivered a vast array of different design projects Australia wide.

One of Tom’s most recent design ventures was the completion of Swanston Streets ‘Metro Tunnel HQ’ – an immersive Visitor Centre that uses virtual and augmented-reality technology to encourage all Victorians to learn more about the construction of the Metro Tunnel – Victoria’s largest ever public transport project in history.

Tom also co-owns The Milkman Cafe, a beautiful seaside cafe on the Mornington Peninsula designed and built by himself! Tom finds joy in radiating laughter, positivity, gratitude and empathy and puts his best foot forward in every situation presented to him.

Tom came back to school to address an assembly in 2018.
