My organisation
About me
I am an award-winning architectural designer and entrepreneur focused on regenerative design and material innovation. As CEO of AGREKA Build, I lead the development of WHEATEX, a circular bio-based insulation made from waste wheat straw. With a decade of experience in architecture and sustainability, I have worked with major brands like LVMH and The Crown Estate. I have been honoured with awards including the LVMH MaisonZero Prize for 'regenerative luxury' and the Founder 50 Award and hold degrees from The University of Manchester and Central Saint Martins, UAL. I am passionate about decarbonising construction, tackling fuel poverty, and creating a healthier built environment.
