I am an interior architect with 11 years international interior and architectural design experience on 4 continents. I have a wide variety of experience ranging from interior design, architecture and product design, to film set design. I have worked on projects in Australia, Singapore, the UK, France, Russia, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and various African countries. I am also a WELL AccreditedProfessional.

I have interior design experience projects ranging from commercial- (such as the Abu Dhabi stock exchange, Aecom, Arup etc,), retail - (DBS Treasures and Massbanking, MTN South Africa, Barclays  UK etc.), educational (Sydney and Macquarie Universities) healthcare (Westmead hospital front of house); hospitality and high end and multi residential interior design. I have worked for 3 of the top 100 architecture and interior design firms - Gensler, HDR and Space Matrix,  as well as award winning architects and designers in Sydney, Singapore and South Africa.  I have also had the pleasure of working on the set design of international films with the top players in the industry. I am thus an excellent all-rounder.

My key strength is my creativity and concept creation, yet I also have the ability to manage projects under tight deadlines (which includes basic project management and procurement experience), and produce good construction detailing, budgets and create impressive graphic presentations. I have mentored various junior, mid and senior designers, including doing team resourcing. As an added benefit I have a good ability for trend forecasting. I believe I will be valuable to COMUNiTI due to the variety of my experience, my passion for design and my high level of creativity. I have very good Revit (user since 2005) and Adobe suite skills, as well as free hand sketching abilities.  I can turn any dream or creative concept into a reality.

Please see my CV and mini portfolio attached.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Kind Regards
