CV
I am a Scottish-Canadian architecture graduate from the University of Edinburgh (RIBA Part 1), with a particular interest in the relationship between place and inhabitation. Growing up in Scotland with a longstanding connection to Nova Scotia has shaped my understanding of how architecture emerges from cultural and natural contexts.
      My experience working with Brian Mackay-Lyons in Lunenburg, alongside my final year research and design work, has strengthened my interest in timber construction, craft, and the relationship between drawing and built form. I am particularly interested in architecture that is rooted in its setting and developed through careful consideration of structure and human experience.
