Software developer and computational designer, living in London.

Currently an Associate Director at London-based engineering firm AKT II, and Leader of their software development team. This Dev Team supports all of AKT’s specialist groups: Structural Engineering, the Bioclimate Team, the Applied Research Team (P.art), and so on.

Previously worked for Thomas Heatherwick Studio, RoboFold, Atmos, and other companies with a focus on complex geometry and computationally-derived design, optimisation & fabrication processes.

Has run workshops and given lectures at academic institutions such as The University of Westminster, The Royal College of Art and The Bartlett.

Holds a Bachelors and Masters degree in Architecture, both from the University of Bath. Master’s thesis analysed the architectural implications of digital modelling and computer-aided manufacturing technologies.
