What inspired you to want a life in Architecture and the creative industries?:
Always enjoyed creating things, sensing spaces and landscape/nature.  First came across architecture back in 2001.

Who inspired you in finding your path to Architecture/Film and the creative industries?:
Dr Maria Faraone, RIBA Studio Programme Director.

How you unlock obstacles and overcome bias in your work?:
I am new to studying as well as to working in practice so still early days. But I would say finding one’s own voice, using it, and believing in it is the start. Also seeing it as it is, and not unseeing it.

What improvements do you feel are required to promote effective change in the academic and working environment?:
Increasing the diversity of tutors, design examiners and professors is one. Working environment, I  do not know yet.
