About

As an experienced architect, development planner, and development economist, I have researched, taught and worked towards inclusive and sustainable development. I have thematically focused on topics ranging from land, energy, architectural design, place-making, and building materials, in various international contexts - including India, Argentina, Peru, Mexico, Egypt, Indonesia and the Mediterranean region. I currently research and teach Circular Economy and Resource Efficiency with a focus on social, spatial, and environmental justice at University College London.
