Being originally form the Bay Area, I have just relocated back to the states with my family from living in London for the past 6 years. I am currently holding a position as a Project Co-ordinator / Designer in an architecture practice based in San Francisco, and was also holding the same title during my time in London. The San Francisco practice designs and develops a wide range of residential projects as well as being one of only a few firms specializing in bridge design worldwide. My previous London practice undertook a mass variety of projects ranging in value from £500k to £100m+, as well as providing a multi-disciplinary design consultancy to residential development and regeneration sectors all over the world.
Exclusively, I have 7 years post graduate project managing experience both in the UK and the US, as well as junior architectural experience during the course of my university duration. My project experience in the UK for over the past 6 years includes creating lasting sustainable housing schemes and placemaking, and developing new residential and mixed-use social housing accommodation design schemes. My extensive project involvement comprises schematic design phases all the way through to construction documentation and administration. In addition, I have further experience with schematic design, feasibility studies, planning applications, urban design, construction documents and graphic design, all in the realm of education renovation, leisure, commercial, interiors, apart-hotels, care homes, and bespoke design projects. Currently, I am undergoing my licensure to become an architect.
I am also inclined to practice sustainable design, recognizing the need for buildings that respect the environment and their use of energy and materials. Majority of my projects were required to be designed and constructed to meet a minimum rating Level of 3 for BREEAM: Code for Sustainable Homes. As well as designing a new residential housing scheme and new church hall with an aim to receive an ‘Excellent’ BREEAM Bespoke rating for sustainable design.
These project experiences have influenced an even further progression of my design capabilities, on top of becoming an efficient and organized team leader.
