Senior Architectural Graduate at Agents of Architecture coordinating a Green Star 6 project and developing an embodied carbon framework.

New Zealand
Message

At Agents of Architecture, I coordinated consultants, suppliers and construction-stage planning on a Green Star 6 project, aligning cost, quality and programme. I also developed an embodied carbon framework for office-wide use.

At Ryman Healthcare, I coordinated services and documentation with consultants and internal departments, and prepared construction and compliance documentation for council approval. I co-developed a reusable framework and template for embodied carbon calculations.

At ASC Architects, I co-led project development and prepared tender documentation and contracts. Earlier, at We Don't Have Elephants, I coordinated studio projects and consultants through construction detailing and 3D modelling.

My experience also includes managing small commercial and residential interior projects as a freelancer, leading design through final documentation at Felipe Gil Arquitectos, and conducting sun pattern, thermal and illumination analysis at La B. I hold an MA of Construction Management from Auckland University of Technology (AUT) and am a current Green Star Associate Practitioner (GSAP).
