Natalie de Sousa completed her undergraduate studies in Environmental Science and Marine Geoscience at the University of Sydney in 2010. In 2012 she moved to Melbourne to complete her Masters of Landscape Architecture at the University of Melbourne.
In her final year she undertook a 6-month individual thesis that was nominated for the 2015 HASSELL Travelling Scholarship Robin Edmund Award and was awarded the 2015 Ellis Stones Memorial Award. Her interests within the discipline of Landscape Architecture vary but she has particular interest in the research aspects of the disciple and other areas such as urban informatics and planning for health, well being and recreation.
In 2015 Natalie moved back to Sydney and is currently working as a Graduate Landscape Architect at JMD Design.
