Clara joined Woodknowledge Wales to familiarise herself with embodied carbon and explore new ways to become more proactive and help facilitate change within the construction industry towards better choices and design. 

She has a background in architecture and urban design with professional experience particularly in the residential sector working across a variety of scales with housing associations, councils, volume housebuilders as well as private clients. Her broad background reflects her interest in the built environment as a setting for everyday life, which has led her on a quest to find ways to challenge standard solutions and traditional ways of working in order to make that ‘everyday’ sustainable for the planet in the long term.
