Jun 2020 - Dec 2022
In AB Studio I was managing architectural projects from client acquisition to receiving the building permit. The most fascinating aspect of my job was architectural research, which included on-site examination of heritage buildings and drafting conclusions about its historic and architectural value. The top projects include Alsunga Castle, World Trade Centre Riga - a modernist architecture pearl, and Tirgus 5 Ventspils - an oldest wooden two-storey warehouse in Latvia.

Sep 2019 - Dec 2019
After my teaching experience in HafenCity, Riga Technical University approached me with a proposal to give an original course in urban studies. The course, which was designed by me from scratch, covered a variety of topics from energy transition and sustainable mobility to climate resilient pubic spaces and urban agriculture. I, also, developed a series of small creative tasks for student teams, which contributed into a larger research project, thus training students in designing and carrying out research activities.

Together with a colleague, in pairs, we supervised and guided student teams, which developed architectural, spatial planning and urban design projects. Each summer I coupled with a different colleague from another country / field, and we developed an original interdisciplinary workshop concept.
