About
I am an aspiring architect with a passion for elegant, creative and practical solutions to design problems. I am currently studying for my Masters degree & Part II Exemption at the University of Nottingham. I have previously worked as a Consultant for LDA Design in my Year Out, both as a member of the architecture team as well as gaining experience on landscape and urban design focussed projects. I was involved with the full scope of the practice's work, including public realm work, city centre regeneration masterplans, detailed housing design, renewable energy projects and architectural competition submissions.
My work aims to be sensitive to the needs of the people using it and the qualities of the environment in which it sits. Taking part in a live build project has given me an awareness of the importance of designing for construction, the constraints of working on site and the wide range of issues a project faces before completion. -
