Researcher, Writer & Editor

I'm a design-led researcher, writer, and editor exploring intersections of architecture, ecologies, economies, and social change.

Alongside my freelance practice, I currently work as a project advisor on Free Radicals, a two-year research project exploring the intersections between plant biodiversity and creative practice, co-funded by Creative Europe.

Previously, I worked as a writer & editor with rearc institute, an emerging philanthropic initiative realising architectures of planetary well-being; as contributing editor at SPACE10, a research and design lab on a mission to create a better everyday life for people and the planet; and as content editor with Planetary Praxis, an interdisciplinary research group investigating social, digital and environmental justice.

Research and reading are central to my practice, as are conversations—with architects, designers, creatives, farmers and troublemakers imagining possible futures shaped by decolonial feminisms, economies of care, radical urbanism, and Indigenous sovereignty. Futures where nature has rights, community is a practice, and the story of how we live is a story of the land and waters.

on Country

While I currently reside far from home, I acknowledge the First Peoples of the lands and waters that raised me, and their enduring connection to Country. I offer my respects to Elders and stand with community in actioning truth-telling and land back. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples hold 120,000 years of traditions, culture, patterns of knowledge, and stories.
