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 the design of buildings of diverse typologies and public spaces, as well as restoration and adaptive reuse, including award-winning residential projects. During a sabbatical abroad, I contributed to research on lightweight, energy-efficient buildings, components, and retrofit solutions. I am fascinated by thresholds—the in-between states, whether spatial, temporal, psychological, or conceptual. I envision them as realms in their own right, charged by the presence of the adjacent. It is within this liminal tension that fertile ground emerges for exploration, experimentation, and transformation.
