BA HONS LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT
PROFILE I am a third-year Landscape Architecture student due to graduate in June 2021. Joining University at a slightly later stage made me confident that landscape architecture is my passion in which I want to proceed and be successful. I am a hard-working, passionate and creative individual with excellent problem-solving, organisational, digital and spatial design skills. I enjoy working on a diverse range of projects, as part of a team and under my own initiative. I am passionate about restoring natural land in development disturbed places, improving climate resilience and decreasing the negative impact on the environment and people well-being, through thoughtful landscape design with adaptation to local site conditions. My designs are driven by emphasizing natural processes, to reveal novel sustainable solutions and achieve greater harmony with the surrounding environment and people's well-being.
