James recently graduated with a BSc in Architecture from the University of Reading. Though working on a large range of projects throughout his degree, his final design brief was to create a wildlife crossing and refuge alongside the M4; which he approached with both sensitivity and functionality. Being an avid environmentalist, his dissertation explored how the recent pandemic impacted urban strategy to address the climate change crisis within London.

James previously worked for ColladoCollins in 2019 as an Intern, where he aided the development of bid documents and visual renders within multiple projects.
