About 

A Graduate of Interior Architecture (2011) at the University of New South Wales - Sydney. I like to travel and I love music. In March 2013 I moved to New York seeking new experiences in work and life.

A 6 month stint at New York Firm Sayigh Duman has left me eager to continue to pursue my career and in the mean time I have been working in furniture design at high end furniture company Harbour Outdoor.

I love meeting new people and work well in a team setting. I believe every brief can result in and intelligent, specific and original response all the while adding my own touch of playfulness to the design.  If there's anything those sleepless nights at university taught me, it's that design takes work, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun in the process!
