Back in 2006 I began a somewhat unorthodox foray into the world
of architecture and design by accepting an internship offer from
a prominent local architect’s office. Since then I have remained in
professional practice alongside my formal (and informal) education.
In that time, I have been responsible for a plethora of design work,
not limited simply to architecture. Yet, architecture has been my most
consistent focus and with that I have been involved in various aspects
of design and construction, across a broad range of projects: from
cutting-edge sustainable housing and custom furniture design, to master
planning in areas of outstanding natural beauty. Despite the demands
of professional practice, I have also led a successful and passionate
life in academia, receiving many awards and commendations for my
work. Most recently, I have completed a Master of Arts in Architectural
History and Theory, which has led me to new depths of intellectual
insight and instilled in me a broad fascination with the arts and
philosophy in general. Right now, I’m keen to diversify my experience
further within the wider world of art and design.
