South African born and Italian trained architecture student, currently completing his Masters Thesis at Politecnico di Milano.

 

After graduating from his Bachelors in Architecture, he decided to gain professional experience from an architecture studio in Cape Town, during which he was offered an opportunity to attend an AA Summer School Workshop in London.

 

It was here where he learnt the importance of travel and the benefits that came with studying abroad. Thereafter, he decided to further his architectural education overseas, having been awarded a scholarship to study at the Politecnico di Milano.

 

He now hopes to continue his journey of architectural learning through professional experience obtained abroad.
