VOLUME 01

The Studio Handbook

Over the past 4 years, I've helped architecture students maximise their productivity without comprising on sleep, mental health or passion. Studying architecture is no easy feat, which is why I'm introducing the first volume of The Studio Handbook, a small zine for architecture students to keep handy.

The handbook includes references, tips for tutorials, space to plan for your portfolio and deadlines as well as plenty of links to resources and guides.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you offer guest posts? ✍🏻
We currently do not accept guest posts or paid posts.
What laptop do you use? 💻
I use a Lenovo Thinkbook 15 with the following specs: Core i7, 16GB RAM, 512 SSD, 15.6 inch screen, running Windows 11. In the past I've also used Dell laptops and would recommend Windows over Mac.

You can watch my full review here.
Do you have any courses? 🖱️
Not at the moment, although this is something I am looking to develop in the future.
Can I ask you for career advice? 🧱
I typically tend not to give career advice, especially to international applicants since it's not my area of expertise as I'm not a recruiter or employer. If anything, I would advise everyone to invest in their personal brand and show up online whilst skill-building.

I do, however, offer career coaching which is all about building a personal brand, not finding a job. If you're interested in working with me, you can find out more here.
Where can I find more content from you?
I post about my career journey over on LinkedIn, document the occasional vlog over on YouTube but post almost every day on Instagram - see you there!
