About me
Placemaking and participatory processes are my biggest passion and my carrier. As an architect, I help communities and decision-makers to transform their hopes for the future into designs. My experience goes from streetscapes to exhibitions, from neighbourhood projects to city strategies.

  • Bright ideas
    Bright ideasIn conjunction with the Public Health Agency Northern Ireland, Healthy Places seeks to collect and share “Bright Ideas” for North Belfast through creative conversations and community engagement.
