Associate Director & Architect

Corstorphine & Wright Architects

I am an Architect and Associate Director at Corstorphine & Wright with expertise within the public sector including education and the blue light sectors. My passion for providing children with inclusive, engaging and nurturing spaces is a key driver for me as an Architect, as I believe the investment in our younger generation is vital.I also specialise within the Blue Light sector, in particular working with police forces to evaluate their estates and plan for future resilience. Projects include designing new custody suites, training facilities and HQ divisional offices around the UK. Using trauma informed design principles is integral to my design approach, which ensures that we deliver projects that are inclusive to all occupants whilst providing a safe and secure environment.
