Alexandra Rooney

My goals as a designer are strongly orientated around creating positive social change in our societies, and enriching people's interactions with today's landscapes while securing resilience for tomorrow's. I am passionate about improving the livelihoods of people and wildlife and I'm committed to ensuring that my work will one day be an exemplary reflection of that.

Before joining Boffa Miskell I completed my Bachelor of Landscape Architecture at Te Whare Wānaka o Aoraki (Lincoln University). My final-year major design project 'Resettlement' highlighted visionary opportunities between urban design and refugee resettlement in New Zealand, with a focus on improving cultural connectivity and inclusivity through socially engaging cities and vibrant landscape design.

I am proud to bring a unique perspective and set of passions to the team and have an established skill set in graphic design, design visualisation and design development. I continually seek opportunities to gain new knowledge and build design expertise for future projects, and I look forward to collaborating with others to create landscapes that excite and move people.
