BIO

I am a professional landscape architect, artist and consultant. I am passionate about the idea of ecosystem services and designing mutually beneficial spaces for humans and the rest of the natural world.  My interest lies in the development of landscape solutions that contribute to improving the lives of people whilst enhancing resilience, particularly within our complex urban and cultural environment.

My academic foundation, which includes a Master’s in Landscape Architecture and a BCOM in Economics, Politics, and Philosophy from UCT, has provided me with a unique interdisciplinary perspective. I have built upon this these studies through my work experience and extensive travelling.

As a strategic thinker and problem solver, I am adept at leading complex projects and crafting innovative solutions. I currently have two career hats: I am a landscape architect, working freelance on private and pro bono projects, and a rail operations consultant, specialising in programme management and delivery. My 20 years of experience is varied, across creative and analytical fields both abroad and within SA.
