Olivia's love for architecture developed from finding passion in the arts and a joy in making, and was nurtured in her home city of Glasgow where she completed her Part I studies at the Mackintosh School of Architecture. 

A passion for the city, its people and its architecture developed through not only her time in Glasgow but also in travelling to various European cities including Venice, Bilbao and Copenhagen on architectural trips alongside her studies.
Undertaking a year in practice as a Part I in London, Olivia is keen to soak up architectural skills from both the city and the practice. Since joining Apt in July of 2020, she has worked on The Auriens St John's Wood project, which has allowed Olivia to find a balance in her skill set, utilising model making skills as well as solidifying skills beyond the design stage.

Olivia enjoys staying creative outside of work; exploring London's galleries and museums, nurturing a love for music and film, as well as combining her creativity with her love of fitness as she furthers her hobby as a dancer.
