Arkitektpraktikant
As an ARB/RIBA qualified Part 1 Architectural Assistant, I bring a diverse background in residential, education, and mixed-use projects alongside playing a key role in design competitions for Saunders Boston Architects.
With expertise in collaborative design development, including drafting, 3D modelling, and visualisation, I navigate RIBA stages 1-5 and building regulations seamlessly as part of the design team.
Active participation in personal competitions, such the AIA UK Student Charrette and Cambridge Urban Room, as well as industry events keeps me abreast of emerging trends.
Moreover, my engagement in architectural mentorship programs for under-represented minorities underscores my commitment to increase diversity and inclusion within the profession and encourage more to join it.
