I’m a Director and Landscape Architect based in Planit’s Altrincham studio, but I’m also the leading director of our recently formed Leeds studio. As one of Planit’s five Employee Ownership Trustees and Strategy Board members, I play a key role in the direction of the business for the common good of everyone in the practice. I’m always happy to engage with people and my outward facing role in the business is built on creating new relationships and nurturing old.

My day-to-day life involves design and leading larger projects whilst overseeing others and, alongside our other leading designers I aim to drive quality of design and delivery through our schemes. Throughout this work, I demonstrate a commitment to craftsmanship and deep understanding of materiality. My ability to envisage how high-level site-wide concepts will be technically delivered is something I pride myself on.

I am dedicated to Planit’s Community Investment and Social Value commitments through which we focus on education and outreach programmes, supporting the unhoused and displaced, and climate-related action.
