Principal / ArchitectStudio 74
I am a registered architect with over 15 years of experience in Australia and overseas and I have been involved in successful projects across a wide range of scales from masterplans to large scale educational project delivery and now bespoke private homes.
Practicing architecture initially in Germany and London, I arrived in Australia in 2003. Initially working as a Graduate Architect at the Woods Bagot’s Sydney Office, I couldn’t look past the opportunity to work at the emerging practice of Annabel Lahz and Andrew Nimmo and joined the Lahznimmo team in 2004 and I became an associate director in 2008. At Lahznimmo Architects, I carried out key roles in award winning educational projects, such as the Australian School of Business at the UNSW, which received the 2008 NSW Architecture Award for Public Buildings.
In 2011, I made the conscious decision to start Studio74 with a stronger focus on small-scale private residential and landscape projects. I am very sensitive to every client’s different needs and my strong strategic and technical skills are critical to the way I manage client relationships, design quality and project delivery within my practice.
