I bring over 20 years of architectural experience, including four years running my own practice. I'm known for my clear communication and collaborative approach, which helps me build strong relationships with clients and design teams alike. My career has included work in New Zealand and internationally, across a wide range of sectors including commercial, community, education, residential, prefabrication, and remediation.

As a Design Team Leader at Ignite, I provide expert leadership in client engagement, design management, and construction observation. I consistently aim to deliver thoughtful and effective design outcomes.

Inspiration

Plus icon

I’m driven by human emotion, especially moments of pure euphoria. Few things move me more than a powerful musical performance or the sight of an Olympic champion in tears as their anthem plays. I also draw inspiration from nature, creativity, and beauty.
