I am a registered architect with over 25 years' experience working with homeowners across New Zealand, including Nelson, Tasman, Central Otago, Wānaka, Dunedin, Auckland and Wellington.
Much of my work focuses on architectural alterations — helping clients transform the homes they already have through thoughtful, carefully considered design.
As a mother of three and currently undertaking my third home renovation, I understand first-hand how transformative good design can be — and how important it is to feel confident throughout the process.

Showcase
House on Waimea Estuary
A new home on a private estuary-front site in Māpua, replacing a 1950s dwelling. Designed around passive solar principles, the house is oriented along the western axis to maximise views to the Waimea Estuary and Western Ranges, with living areas at the north end and sheltered outdoor spaces shaped by the building form. Full-height cavity sliders allow the house to open completely or close off as needed. A sculptural timber stair balustrade creates a focal point in the double-height entry, framing views to the water.
