Projects
- #QuarantineinbloomI always sketch and carry a sketchbook with me, whether at an exhibition, lecture, on a day trip or simply out and about. Lockdown has left me furloughed from my full time job, but still actively freelancing regularly with an architecture practice as their marketing consultant. I am, as the days go on, creating a series of drawings called #quarantineinbloom, focused on the plants that I have in my home, along with those that I forage on my daily walks around my local area.

Activities and Societies: Co-editor of Outlet Magazine & Contributing Writer
Throughout my masters I challenged conventions by focusing on festival architecture and warehouse raves. My essays allowed me to write creatively whilst embedding theory in a careful and considered way.
'Criticism and Experience: 88 Wood Street by Roger Stirk Harbours.'
An essay which studied a high technology building in the heart of London, combining relative archive materials such as critical texts and the architectural press. I had the opportunity to have a guided tour around the building, to see aspects that are not open to the public.
