About

I am a First-class Design for Future Living graduate with a strong foundation in sustainability-focused design, combining creative communication skills with practical project experience. I developed key strengths in content creation, project coordination, and the use of digital tools such as Microsoft Office, Google Workspace, Photoshop, SketchUp, and AutoCAD. I am detail-oriented and organised, honed through managing complex live projects and producing clear, audience-focused proposals.

I am now looking to apply my creativity, writing skills, and organisational abilities in a dynamic, hybrid role that supports brand storytelling and operational excellence within a luxury-focused business. I collaborate effectively with architects, urban planners, and developers, and have experience in community engagement and user research to design inclusive, people-centred spaces. I bring creative problem-solving, leadership, budgeting, and an adaptable, innovative mindset to evolving urban living and housing solutions.
