I am a Landscape Architect and Urban Designer, passionate about place, planet, and people. I am CEO and co-founder of Planit– an interdisciplinary, creative studio, working in collaboration across the UK and Europe. I am responsible for the definition and growth of the practice’s Regenerative mission.

We are a B Corp who take an integrated approach to urban futures. We pioneer the way forward for sustainability in our projects, collaborating on all scales, from city region, to towns, spaces, and objects.

I am not building, or project focussed. Much of my work is built around setting frameworks and guidance for development and sustainable change. I am co-author of the Liverpool Strategic Investment Framework, Manchester Residential Quality Guidance, and Sheffield City Plan.

I am proud co-founder of Manchester’s Cyan Lines project alongside my friend Tom Bloxham CBE - with a vision to create 100 miles of nature in the city by 2050.

I am helping shape some of the most significant regeneration projects that will take place across Manchester & Liverpool City Regions during my lifetime and beyond. I’m a member of the Design Council Expert Network, a B Corp Ambassador, a PLACED Academy Alumni Mentor 🎓 and avid long-distance cyclist.
