About Me

I was born in Bath in 1951. I come from a professional family, most of whom have been either artists or scientists. I started off with a scientific degree from St Catherine’s College in Oxford and then spent several years reconciling my training with my love for the arts. After several years doing anything and everything I gave that up to study my greatest interest, which is architecture.

I qualified when I was 34. Good times at Kingston and Oxford Polytechnics, also learning law in London which is where my dispute resolution practice comes from. To help pay my way while I was training I worked as an architectural assistant at a local authority, mostly on affordable housing.

After qualifying, Robert Maguire & Keith Murray invited me to open an Oxfordshire office with them, spending the next 10 years as a director of Maguire & Co. I then spent 3 years in London and Oxford with Hyett Salisbury Whiteley before setting up my present firm as a sole practitioner in Oxford.

I am married with four grown-up children, and live in Oxford.
