Bio

I am a design leader and strategist with over a decade of experience working across architecture, foresight and the built environment. I help organisations imagine and act on more hopeful futures, creating tangible strategies and inspiring narratives that drive action towards a thriving, regenerative world.

I trained as an architect at The Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL, completing BSc, MArch and Part III, exploring community-driven projects and digital landscapes, and qualified as an architect. I began a career practising architecture at Architecture Initiative, Moxon Architects and Frame Architects, before leading a team at Delve Architects, where I designed an RIBA Award-winning sustainable nursery in London.

In 2021 I joined Arup Foresight, building a design-led function from the ground up to explore strategies and frameworks for more resilient, regenerative and safe futures. As Design Lead, I went on to lead a multidisciplinary team across research, strategy, design fiction and applied foresight, working with Arup's leadership to explore climate futures and design strategic programmes, tools and workshops. At the heart of my practice is a belief in design as a tool for convening people, setting out collective visions, and making futures tangible through emotive formats across film, objects, exhibitions and events.

I am an active voice in the industry, contributing to RIBA Expert Panel on the Future Business of Architecture and regularly speaking at conferences and institutions including EASST, UCL, UAL, RIBA, the Polish Architects Board and the Dubai Future Forum. I have lectured and contributed to courses at Milan Polytechnic, The Bartlett, RCA and UAL, and continue to build on my regenerative design practice through Regenerative Design Lab.

Collaborators

I have worked with and delivered projects for organisations including IKEA, Royal Society of Arts, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, National Infrastructure Commission for Wales, RIBA, major fashion retailers, and clients across the built environment sector.
