With 30 years of experience in architecture, I specialised in large complex science and education projects, including campus masterplans, strategic briefing, stakeholder engagement, and early-phase concept design in the tertiary education sector. I have worked across various scales of practice, both in Australia and internationally, seeking out key project opportunities to deepen her understanding of pedagogical trends and the factors that attract students to campus.

I approach design through a collaborative, people-centric lens, seeing each project as an opportunity to create meaningful, innovative environments. I am passionate about working with visionary clients who are eager to push the boundaries of design to foster innovation, partnerships, and sustainability. I am a strong advocate for teamwork, she believes that exceptional outcomes emerge from open exploration, idea testing, and co-design.

I am an Equity Partner at Hassell and the Managing Principal of the Brisbane Studio for the past six years. This role demands I bring strategic insights to both projects and business operations. I am committed to driving design excellence, fostering high-performance teams, and cultivating a collaborative studio culture. I have developed an empathetic leadership style and I am a strong advocate and champion for diversity and equity within the design industry, ensuring inclusive and forward-thinking approaches to managing a design practice.
