After 15 years in the graphic design, commercial print and communications sector, I wanted a new challenge and decided to retrain in architectural design. In 2021 I graduated with a New Zealand Diploma in Architectural Technology. I specifically chose a career in residential architectural design as the impact of the work is incredibly tangible, even life changing for the clients. It’s a profound privilege to be a part of that process. I have a personal interest in universal design and am keen to do my part to make the built environment more equitable for all needs and abilities. When I’m not working, I love spending my free time with my amazing wife, four beautiful kids, two dogs and two cats.
