An aspiring designer, committed to shaping the world we live in through innovative architecture. I aim to embark on a career that thrives on fresh ideas and to create spaces that inspire and endure, whilst fuelling my profound desire to positively impact our worlds built environment and leave it better than we found it.
My educational journey at Monash has taken me worldwide. Shown below are selected works from my final Studio, Industrial (R)Evolution, completed in Prato, Italy. My proposal focuses on utilising would-be waste material (fabric roll cardboard tubes) and repurposing it to enclose a composting toilet facility, public recreational seating and a modular cafe for future re-use.

Section BB
From Left to Right - depiction of the integrated pedestrian bike stand, public seating and modular cafe. Aims to highlight the key programs and activities encompassed within this public intervention and the repeated use of cardboard tubes and fabric sheets to subdivide programmatic spaces.
