Mark joined Boffa Miskell in 2004, as a Landscape Architect. He has been employed in the fields of landscape planning, landscape architecture, and restoration ecology in NZ, the United States, and China for over fifteen years. His diverse training and experience in multi-disciplinary projects provides him with a working knowledge of specialist fields such as water sensitive design (WSD), bioengineering, catchment management, and ecological restoration.
Mark has worked on diverse projects within his specialist area, including multiple roads of national significance, large land development projects, integrated catchment and watercourse management plans, and the design and implementation of stormwater wetlands, bioretention devices, stream rehabilitation, and stream daylighting.
On the back of many seminal WSD projects, Mark has worked with Councils to establish guidelines and standards for low impact and water sensitive design. This includes the publication ‘Landscape and Ecology Values within Stormwater Management’ to form part of GD_01 (updated TP10), and GD_04, Auckland’s Water Sensitive Design Manual.
