Why later living and care?
I've always enjoyed drawing things and had an interest in design. As I developed a better understanding of how places impact people's lives, I saw how good design could make a difference in the lives of more vulnerable people.
Career highlight
A one-night stay at a client's care home facility allowed me to understand better the good and the bad of traditional care home infrastructure. More importantly, I could talk to staff and residents about their experiences, and this helped me to understand how difficult it is to expect that a homogenous approach to housing is in any way a suitable solution for later living.
