PASSIONS

Areas I'm passionate about

As creative leaders with a shared commitment to quality, collaboration, and creativity, we're proud to pursue out most meaningful work and deliver the best every time.

Having lived most of my adult life in global megacities, I've seen firsthand the amazing ability they have to bring people together and allow our collective potential to flourish, but I've also witnessed the incredible strain they place on resources and the natural environment. As we look forward to a future in which more of us choose to live in megacities, it is vital that we design them to be sustainable and conducive to our well-being.

Values & Ethos

Because the way we innovate is failing us, we must go beyond "what can we do" and strive for "what should we do". Now more than ever, we must tap into our collective capacity for innovation, connect across expertise, industries, and geographies to solve the challenges that will secure our futures.
