The Journey
After more than 30 years of design and construction experience within the New Zealand and Pacific building sector, I am excited to be running my own practise once again.

Creative Solutions
I enjoy working collaboratively with clients, thinking outside the box to produce designs that reflect their lifestyle.

Respect The Place

I believe that all good design begins with understanding the site and working with it to create functional and innovative spaces that sit lightly on the land.

ARCHITECTURAL TECHNICIAN
BBA, GDipBS, MMS
Diversity
I bring a unique perspective to the architectural process with a range of experience in business, marketing and construction.

The How To
I enjoy the technical challenges of modelling  the buildings we design. I am committed to delivering detailed documentation across a variety of work including sheds, homes and commercial projects.

The Finished Product
Seeing projects come to life and taking our clients on the journey from plans on paper to built form is rewarding.
