My professional practice spans architectural and interior design, 3D visualisation, visual art, and teaching.
I began my work experience in 2016 as a gravestone designer. This shaped my first deep engagement with the method of co-authorship: acting as a prism that absorbs and transforms someone else’s vision into a tangible form. This method—of listening, interpreting, reflecting rather than imposing-until now continues to shape my collaborations with architects, artists, and clients.
I teach in the Master’s department at the Maastricht Academy of Architecture, where my practice centers on encouraging an attentive, research-oriented approach to architecture. One of my specialisations is visual communication and conceptual narrative: the application and juxtaposition of craft, theoretical, and technical knowledge. Alongside project guidance and practical workshops, I support students in structuring academic research and developing authentic graduation writing.
My own design practice is grounded in the belief that harmony cannot be created, only unveiled. My personal work attempts to be a sensitive reflection of its context and a dialogue between intention and unpredictability.
