Sima gained her Bachelor of Architectural degree from University College Dublin in 2004.  On completion of her part II, she worked with John O’Neill and Associates Architects (JONA) where she had previously worked on a part-time capacity whilst studying architecture. At JONA she gained valuable architectural experience in a variety of architectural projects and design methodologies. In 2005, she part founded Twenty Architecture, where she further explored her interests in environmental & human centred design and further developed multidisciplinary collaboration in small practice setting.

Her interest with the process of design brought her back to academia and TU Dublin, where she has been teaching and learning since 2007.
