A B O U T
I am a Chartered UK Architect with 9 years of professional experience undertaking a lead role within a number of projects, ranging in scale, across a broad range of sectors - including community initiatives, residential developments, commercial/leisure buildings, regeneration & master plan strategies, and healthcare facilities for the National Health Service. Projects I have worked on range in value from just a few thousand pounds to developments of over £20 million.
Beyond this project experience, I have acted as both an Employee Representative and Trustee Director within the Employee Ownership Trust Board of CSY Architects - a medium sized practice with offices across Scotland.
Proficient at working both independently and as part of a team through all stages of the design process, from conception to completion, I believe that I have a personable and professional approach with clients, colleagues, contractors, consultants, and local authorities.
In July 2024, l left my previous practice, CSY Architects, to progress the refurbishment of a new family home (a listed fishing village cottage within a conservation area) whilst simultaneously preparing for a trek to Everest Base Camp. This soon morphed into me pursuing my own architectural projects as a sole practitioner after being approached by a number of prospective clients.
Outwith employment, my architectural delineations have received success internationally and have been exhibited on both sides of the Atlantic. Notably, I have exhibited multiple times at the Scottish National Gallery and have been both a Winner (2021) and Finalist (2018) at the American Institute of Architect's Ken Roberts Memorial Delineation Competition - the worlds longest running architectural drawing contest.
I consider myself conscientious and quick-learning. I always look forward to new challenges and am enthused by the opportunities a challenge can provide to grow and strengthen both skills and character.
