Founder, 2019
Mplan Urban Studies and Planning Studies, University of Sheffield

I launched Centro in 2019 following 12 years in central London planning practice. I love to be in the centre of complex projects, rallying the team, and unlocking solutions which deliver results. Away from work, I’m spending time with my wife and kids, catching up with friends, and cheering on Nottingham Forest!
