Kaiwhakahaere Hoahoa Hangarau | Design Technology Lead | Landscape Architect
Specialist

At the beginning of my career, I gained valuable experience taking on projects ranging from large-scale infrastructure to small public spaces from concept through to construction. I've spent the past several years spearheading Boffa Miskell's journey to becoming a leader in building information modelling (BIM) for landscape architecture.

Seeing our project work enriching people's lives in both the natural and built environment is what keeps me loving the work we do. I'm passionate about reducing the effort involved in communicating and documenting our design intent so that we can spend more of our time designing for the best possible outcomes.

Unsurprisingly, my enthusiasm for the outdoors extends beyond the workplace. I spend much of my free time running the trails of Pōneke's town belt and skateboarding or mixing concrete at our community-built skateparks. I also perform in the city's premier a cappella sea shanty choir.
