I am an architect interested in enabling and making vernacular architecture: materially, socially and technically. An integral part of this is exploring how we can better share our knowledge and experience to strengthen a ‘collective’ and transdisciplinary architecture practice.

I think through my hands as well as with words. I observe through drawing, photography, film and sound.
