Gap year
January 2009 - January 2010
Worked in boarding school in Sandhurst, England. Working with children from ages 5 - 13 as a sports coach, and teachers assistant. I also assisted in the boarding house by organising activities for the children, and domestic duties. I also regularly assisted in organising inter school spots fixtures. During school holiday times I took every opportunity to travel throughout the UK and Europe. I immersed myself in each culture by learning basic phrases in each language, stayed in local B&B’s, hostels, camp-grounds, and relied on public transport. I also made the effort to socialise with as many locals as possible throughout each country I visited, and as a result I have many friends throughout the UK and Europe.
Study Abroad
September 2012 - July 2013
Opportunity to study abroad for one year as part of my undergraduate degree I have gained invaluable insights and knowledge of Landscape Architecture from a variety of different cities in both the UK and Europe.
Activities and Interests I am a keen sportswoman and have competed in a wide range of sports from cycling at a national level to tennis, netball, and swimming. I have captained my tennis inter-club team, and school cycling team. In the past I have coached netball, tennis rounders, athletics, hockey and swimming. I also have a passion for photography and am a recognised cycling photographer in New Zealand.

FABRICATING TERRAIN VAGUE
ELLIOTT STREET CAR PARK, BLEDISLOE LANE, AND MAYORAL DRIVE UNDERPASS 4th year Negotiated Study. Auckland CBD, New Zealand How can appropriation and reframing infrastructure unleash the hidden potentials of three small scale Terrain Vague sites within Auckland CBD? The purpose of a negotiated study is to demonstrate the development of a personal philosophy and landscape architectural strategies through the completion of a self-directed, advanced landscape architectural research project. My proposal stems from an interest in unused sites or forgotten spaces “terrain vague” within a city and how interventions can be implemented within these spaces. All three sites are designed to be interactive urban spaces, flexible and adaptive to the users needs. The designs revolve around the idea of adaptability “emptiness” to over-programmed urban space. Urban dwellers are capable of creating their own meaning in environments.

The Terraced Wetland is the second stage of the sites SUDS stragergy. Terraced Wetlands are used to oxygenate nutrient rich water, remove and retain good nutrients and reduce suspended sediments while creating pleasant water features; Different species of wetland plants were selected and designed to absorb different pollutants from the water.

RAIN GARDENS Excavated to a depth of 400mm to function as part of the top level SUDS system. A generic mix of my choosing. This typology is made up of water tolerant based plants that is part of the SUDS strategy for the top level of the site. The key principle of the rain-gardens is to use plants that will, filter and reduce the amount of stormwater and suspend contaminates moving across the top level before entering the terraced wetland. Most garden plants can withstand short periods of inundation and do not need to come from wetland or marshy habitats. Herbaceous plants should be selected for robustness, long flowering, seasonal interest and ease of maintenance.

NORTH PLACE DEVELOPMENT
A high quality mixed use development for Cheltenham Design Thesis. Cheltenham, England I proposed that North Place and Portland Street car parks should be developed as an extension to Cheltenham town centre providing commercial, residential and public open space to the local residents. This extension is designed in an appropriate and sympathetic manner with the provision for recreational activities such as festivals to be held within the site. I wanted to create a site that is an exciting and iconic space which will become a destination used by visitors and locals.

The aim of this project was to produce an innovative and ambitious proposal for the future use and development of Castle Meads and Alney Island Nature Reserve. The site was considered as a gateway into Gloucester City and also a combined exemplar of food-plain and ecological management and as an exciting, dynamic and iconic landscape immediately adjacent to and accessible from the historic Gloucester city centre and its docks.

SOUTH EAST AUCKLAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN Clevedon, Auckland, New Zealand
The south east Auckland development plan consisted of three projects that addressed the issues around urban growth at three different scales. The dicoveries and ideas from each project were transformed and refined in the next one. I was to investigate the possibilities of an alternative model of urban development – horizontal urbanization outside the proposed urban limits. The focus was on ecological performance and livibility of the proposed development. I was to recognise and analyse the main landscape factors, elements, processes and patterns within the Auckalnd wider region in order to identify areas where innovative forms of settlement/growth can be located and implemented.

Clevedon Eco Island is a new development that is situated within the Clevedon valley south west of the existing Clevedon village, surrounded by the 100 year floodplain. Its aim is to become a sustainable self-sufficient community. 81 HECTARES

The topography of the area for development has two main rivers (Wairoa River and Taitaia stream) running down either side of the site, which ends up in the Tamaki Strait then feeds into the Hauraki Gulf. A subtle ridge that cuts through the middle of the site and creates runoff into these rivers. Catching the storm-water and putting it through a treatment process before it permeates into the river systems is very important especially as the site lies within the 100 year flood plain. This is also a key component for the site to be sustainable and ecologically resilient.

This has been achieved by a variety of storm water management interventions such as swales rain gardens, and living roofs that run throughout the terraced block (with the swales being the main design intervention). These storm-water devices collect water from the surrounding terraced houses, and adjacent roads, walkway’s/cycleway’s. The devices break up the impervious surfaces to collect water, and look of the terraced block. They will also substationally add to the amenity of the area.
