I am an architect, educator, and researcher with over twenty-five years of experience in practice and teaching. As Senior Lecturer and Stage Leader, I mentor emerging architects while shaping curricula that value curiosity, craft, experimentation, and integration. My teaching emphasises student-centred learning, encouraging design exploration through iterative and intermedial processes and fostering interdisciplinary, cross-boundary approaches. I contribute nationally and internationally as a visiting critic and External Examiner. My professional practice spans from designing buildings of diverse typologies to restoration and adaptive reuse. During a recent sabbatical abroad, I contributed to research on lightweight, energy-efficient structures and retrofit solutions. I am fascinated by the concept of thresholds, the ‘in-between’ that simultaneously permits relations and conflicts, an osmosis of spatial, material, temporal, and psychological forces. I envision thresholds as realms in their own right, charged by the presence of what lies adjacent. It is within this liminal tension - this productive friction - that fertile ground emerges, for exploration, for experimentation, for new ideas, and for transformation.
