I have always been driven by a passion for exploring new concepts, motivated by transforming ideas into reality. This curiosity grew into a fascination with how our environments influence the complex relationships between people and the places they inhabit.
As a masterplanner and architect (ARB/RIBA), I’ve been lucky to apply this passion to shaping visions for places and contributing to their implementation. In the UK, I have been involved in diverse urban design and regeneration projects, including infrastructure-related masterplanning and city-scale strategies, such as the Southampton Renaissance, where I’ve had the chance to work collaboratively with stakeholders in bringing forward an overarching vision for the City Centre alongside area frameworks and associated delivery strategies.
Internationally, my experience spans from strategic regional scale to site-specific projects. I was involved in setting out the long-term vision and strategic plans for AlUla, developing principles that form the basis for the development of the region. I subsequently led the detailed masterplanning of districts within the region, interfacing with diverse stakeholders and focusing on the delivery of specific sites. It fills me with pride to witness the continued implementation of this vision on the ground.
