- Profile –

 With more than seven years of experience in Asia as an architectural designer and consultant, I have collaborated on a wide range of projects from design competitions through to construction documentation and site administration. This background enables me to work closely with clients and design teams formulating and developing ideas from concept through to completion, managing the numerous constraints that dictate the building process. With a thorough understanding of program phasing and the documentation process, I utilize the latest technologies and methods to deliver design packages, specifications and construction methodologies to clients, contractors and consultants. With these years of local experience in China and Hong Kong I possess substantial knowledge and understanding of the local market, codes and practices.
