Neha is an architect-urban designer-planner with a passion to design and plan urbanism. She has worked internationally as an architect in Doha, Qatar for GHD and her recent work focuses on urban design, transportation, and comprehensive planning. She excels at a multidisciplinary approach to projects from design to policy planning and strategies at an urban scale. With a global experience of living in several countries (UK, UAE, Qatar & India) within a diverse urban context, she brings a broad perspective to designing and planning cities.
Her interest ranges from working at all phases of urban design and planning projects from initial site analysis, program development, concept alternatives, detail design, and construction documentation to guidelines for implementation. She finds a thrill in completing a project that meets its vision and goals through quality project management. With a quest for learning, she wants to continue exploring new avenues like design technology and sustainability in the built environment.
In her personal journey, she grew up in Abu-Dhabi, UAE and witnessed the fast-paced building of cities and the rising skyline from ground zero. The experience inspired her to pursue architecture and urban design study. While living in London, she loved exploring the city walking and taking public transportation. She calls London her favorite city!
In her creative musings, Neha continues to explore new frontiers at the intersection between less connected avenues. With a quest for learning, she loves to travel to new places and meet people from all walks of life!
