For me, architecture begins with people. I am fascinated by how we inhabit space – how light, materiality and form shape our daily routines, emotions and interactions. I love exploring the stories behind a place and translating them into spaces that feel intuitive, meaningful and welcoming.

I feel incredibly fortunate to work in a profession where we design the environments in which people live, learn, work and come together. That privilege also carries a great responsibility: the spaces we create become part of people’s lives. Knowing this motivates me to approach every design with care, curiosity and empathy. What I enjoy most is doing this together, combining perspectives, ideas and expertise to create architecture that is considerate, thoughtful and genuinely supportive of the people who use it.
