About
A little about me
I am a Part 1 Architecture student at the University of Greenwich with a strong interest in design-led spaces, travel and creating memorable experiences.
Alongside my studies I have built a versatile background across hospitality, customer service and education — from front-of-house work in a hotel environment to tutoring and supporting children’s learning. Working in people-focused settings has strengthened my communication, attention to detail and confidence with clients and guests.
I am particularly drawn to the point where architecture, interior design and hospitality meet — where thoughtful design and service come together to create welcoming, well-considered environments.
Perspective
Growing up between places
I grew up moving between countries. Each move meant a new language, a new set of unwritten rules, and a new idea of what a home is supposed to feel like.
I think that is where my interest in architecture started, before I had a word for it. When you are always arriving somewhere you cannot read yet, you learn to watch closely — which doors people actually use, which rooms sit empty, where everyone ends up standing at the end of the night.
It also taught me to listen before assuming. A space is rarely about what I would want from it. It is about the people who will use it, and they do not all want the same things.
