Architectural Assistant
Carlisle

Summary

Currently completing my Part I placement after completing my Bachelors degree in summer 2022.


Previous work experience include two internships during my studies with conservation/restoration architecture firms. These short placements influenced my architectural position, leading me to choice which was '&Architecture' at the Manchester School of Architecture. This atelier focused on conserving and reimaging an historic building's function within the community.


I have always wanted solid hands-on experience of the construction world, starting in my teens as a labourer on landscaping projects such as patios, fencing and small site projects. Throughout University I laboured part time, and then full time throughout summer. I experienced a variety of projects from newbuild skyscrapers to delicate restoration projects.
