“Working closely with end users to ensure cost effective, design conscious results.”

I joined Watson Batty in October 2021.

It may be from playing with too much Lego as a child, but I have nurtured a lifelong passion for figuring out ways to put things together. Tiny brick houses naturally led to full-sized buildings as I became fascinated with the built environment.

As an associate, I enjoy being a mentor to less-experienced staff and helping them grow in essential skills and confidence.

I have been lucky to undertake projects in most sectors, including education, industrial and logistics, commercial, fit-out, public sector, defence, and transport. It’s challenging, but developing an idea to work technically and seeing it delivered on site is deeply satisfying. Architecture offers a unique opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. Our profession has a huge part to play in providing solutions that minimise our impact on the planet to address the climate crisis.
