Education

Interior ArchitectureUniversity for the Creative Arts
Sep 2013Canterbury, United Kingdom
The course helps to teach a multi-disciplinary approach to transforming underused and unused spaces and places. I took full advantage of the freedom to develop engaging and meticulously researched concepts and explore a range of media to build a strong portfolio of community driven and sustainable projects. I was involved with student mentoring, summer projects and live builds.
Foundation Diploma in Fine ArtUniversity for the Creative Arts
Sep 2012Maidstone, United Kingdom
I learnt invaluable lessons in developing a personal creative language, exploring themes of performance art, sculpture and process of work. This has stayed with me and has lead to personal research pieces which I have undertaken since graduating. I was proud to be awarded with the 'golden chisel' - a long standing tradition within the UCA fine art department which commendates a particular students outstanding development throughout the longevity of the course. I will always be grateful to the tutors and my fellow students who provided me with the creative inspiration which drove me to study interior architecture at an undergraduate level.
