Currently based in London, I will graduate from the LCGD diploma in garden design in summer 2021.

I am fascinated in new ways to develop a garden space using contemporary ideas from art and incorporating these with the local history of a given location. One concept that I enjoy bringing to a design, is contrast, whether it be between the planting and hard landscaping or simply the addition of a novel structure into a garden influenced by a natural landscape.
I would like to achieve this by incorporating new ways of solving issues around sustainability and practicality.

Before deciding to retrain in garden design I worked as the Director of membership for an accountancy institute and have had a varied career up to that point, which has helped me take on the varying nature of garden design, from technical drawing, understanding client needs and desires, through to design development.
