After eight years as an architect at Foster & Partners and lead architect at Wilkinson Eyre, I decided to go independent, using my experience in a different way to help aspiring architects and designers find the right roles in a competitive but rewarding field.
Everyone in the industry can find the perfect place and achieve more with the right guidance and connections. As a lead architect I learnt how to build successful teams, and I use that experience in helping candidates and clients in finding the right match understanding the range of people, what they want, and where they’ll do their best work and be happy.
I believe it’s important to have the experience and the industry knowledge, but also to be able to give candidates the time and the guidance they deserve. It’s a slightly different approach to recruitment than most people are familiar with, and it’s a more successful one in the long term, as the focus is absolutely on what’s best for client and candidate equally.
It’s a big shift from practice, but I’ve found a niche in helping candidates find the right opportunities and it’s profoundly satisfying when you do.

In Between, Cyprus
Thesis 2011-2012
University of Cyprus
Supervisor: Nadia Charalambous
Type: Urban Design
_The project tries to look for and bring forth various aspects of new facts- such as the imminent solution of the Cypriot problem- and especially their impact on an “in between space”, that of the green line. It anticipates the suggestion of alternative ways of inhabiting such a place, investigating at the same time the nature of its borders.
