My journey into architecture and design stated during my high school VCE studies which fostered my passion and desire into studying both an Advanced Diploma of Building Design (2015-16) and a Bachelor of Built Environment (2017-18) at Melbourne Polytechnic. Following this a natural move into the Masters saw me continue my journey at Swinburne with a Masters of Architecture and Urban Design (2020-23) where I experienced a broader skill and context set in the areas of Urban Design, Healthcare Architecture, Fabrication, Computational Design and Multi-generational living through group work and research. Plus serving as a general and committee member on the Swinburne Architecture Students Association for most of my time there. In addition, my passion and drive doesn’t end there. During my spare time, I enjoy spending time around the house and garden, collecting and researching items relating to Architecture and design as well as participating in events such as Open House Melbourne. As well as collecting Telephones and telecommunications items, a passion which has involved me in being a member of the Australian Historic Telephone Society (AHTS) and a volunteer at the National Communication Museum (NCM) in Hawthorn Victoria.
