I am a RIBA Part I Graduate from Manchester School of Architecture. I am looking for a Part 1 architectural Internship for the year 2014-15 in order to further my architectural education.
My work experience includes three periods of paid work in the Middle East. This work included the interior design of a villa, a kiosk design and a restaurant renovation. I have been commissioned on a self-employed basis to design the logo for the British Business Group in Kurdistan. I have worked on collaborative projects as well as individual ones, theoretical projects as well as built ones. Essentially, I believe that the most successful designs are born from collaborations and therefore consider myself to be a team player, well placed to work with clients and colleagues.
I am fully bilingual in both English and French, having lived half of my life in France and the other half in England. Outside of architecture, I enjoy cycling, travelling and mountaineering.
