The HSSP team continues to grow and we are delighted to welcome Vanisha Mistry to the fold. Vanisha is a Part 2 Architectural Assistant with a wealth of experience to complement the team.

A love of science and art led Vanisha to consider these as part of her career pathway but with enjoying lots of other subjects too, including history, geography, sociology, philosophy and so much more, architecture really stood out for her as it incorporates all of these dimensions.

Having researched her family tree, she found out the origins of her surname in India mean ‘building worker’. It then came to light that her ancestors were carpenters and had undertaken building construction over the years which completed the picture for her as she always had an interest in wood working at school too.

Away from work, Vanisha visits historic country houses, palaces and castles to take in the wonder of days gone by. At home, she likes experimenting with random baking – her blueberry jam, orange zest and cream topped cupcakes sound delicious, and the minty chocolatey grasshopper pie sounds divine. Best of all, no grasshoppers were harmed in the making of this pie!

She also likes to relax binge watching box sets, and having had a love of the fantasy genre since childhood, she could easily be the next ‘Potter Wizard’ from all of the books she has read! Having a magic wand could come in rather handy for us all!
