What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to landscape, ecological restoration, and climate-adaptive public realm projects where research, community engagement, and multidisciplinary coordination lead to resilient, buildable design outcomes.

I've contributed to climate-resilient landscape projects including the Dr. M.S. Swaminathan Wetland Eco Park, recognized with the IFLA LA 2025 Award of Excellence, and The Mansion, an 83,954 sqm waterfront residential project in Dubai.

At Studio Create, I coordinated large-scale projects across Dubai and the Middle East, managing field surveys, community engagement, project documentation, budgets, procurement, planting palettes, and water-sensitive design solutions. I work across concept development through construction supervision with consultants, contractors, vendors, and multidisciplinary teams.

My work combines landscape architecture, ecological restoration, planting design, coastal and wetland systems, and climate-adaptive planning. I have also developed nature-based solutions with McGregor Coxall and supported BIM documentation for international projects aligned with the RIBA Plan of Work.

I bring a research-led design voice shaped by 12 published architectural articles, a published master's thesis, and conference presentations on ecological restoration and climate-adaptive strategies. I use design, visualization, GIS, and BIM tools to turn site research into clear, buildable landscape proposals.
