Tirana in Albania

I've got a background as an architecture curator, which has allowed me to get some really amazing cultural projects off the ground. I started off studying fine art in Brighton, and ended up working at the architectural Association in London, which is a really a very famous and quite experimental school of architecture in the heart of London. I've always been interested in amplifying the voices of people working in the built environment. I then worked at the Building Centre as the Creative Director and recently I set up my own business as a curator and cultural strategist focusing on projects in the built environment.

The power of water that is able to carve through the hardest of stone.

Neil Pinder who founded the organisation Homegrown Plus. He's a teacher in South London, and he set up the organisation as a way of getting young people involved in architecture in a really productive way. He's making a real change to people's lives in a way that isn't just about talking about it or creating platforms that are intellectual, he's actually doing it.

I didn't have a chance to put together a business plan or to really think about what I was going to do and how I was going to do it. And when people said, Oh, what are you doing now? I would just calmly say, I'm going to do good things with good people. And I think actually, that is a mantra that is important to me.
