I am an NZRAB Registered Architect and Associate with Copeland Associates Architects.

I have enjoyed working on a multitude of complex projects, ranging from large-scale commercial developments to small-scale residential refurbishments. My multi-cultural approach has been shaped by my professional experience spanning three continents.

Over the years, I have discovered a yearning to explore extreme environment architecture and bioclimatic design. This led me to pursue the Living Future Accreditation. I believe the future and the need of the hour is to create self-sustained and regenerative structures.

Art, dance, hiking and physics among the least, inspire and animate my creative process.

Showcase

Ngā Awa Block

This multi-use community amenities building in Taihape were designed to replace the decrepit facilities located under the earthquake-prone, beloved, heritage-listed Grandstand, as it approached its centenary in 2024. The new building would accommodate changing rooms, showers, storage, public toilets, administrative spaces and control room.

Project Architect

The Lakes Early Childhood Education Centre

This Early Childhood Education Centre has been designed for 90 children aged 0-5 years in Tauranga, New Zealand.

Designed as a simple rectangular box, the form is articulated by dynamic angled and V-pilasters. The monolithic gable roof form is broken up with sections of translucent roofing and a turret-like high-level skylight.
