About me
I am a creative professional who has experience marketing within the architecture and design industries. My previous experience is as a designer maker within the bespoke lighting and industrial design sectors. I am currently a part of a fantastic and motivated marketing team at Foster + Partners, where I am growing my skill set and enjoying immersing myself into the role and company culture. I operate within the core communications team based in the London headquarters and we service the offices globally. I'm passionate about designing for print, graphic and digital design, CMS and email marketing and previously I have been involved in the end to end design process. I am currently learning more about Google analytics and SEO reporting as I aim to improve our website reach and performance. I find this area of data incredibly interesting and I like watching it build monthly and converting this growth into visual understandable company reports. In my personal life I am a traveler, food seeker, pilates enthusiast, car geek and fashion lover. Interests: - Architecture - Automotive industry - Fintech - Business and economics - Luxury bespoke design

  • 4D Luminaire in collaboration with Plumen
    4D Luminaire in collaboration with Plumen In collaboration with Plumen, the creators of the 001 lamp, I was chosen to design a state of the art exhibition luminaire for my final year project. Inspired by Plumen’s futuristic design style, 3D printing technology and smart materials. When the light is turned on an organic transformation begins to occur, utilising the lost heat from the 001 lamp. The colour change flares up the 3D printed geometric structure, designed to fit modular to Plumen’s existing fittings acting as a large fractal heat sink, changing the black surface to a vibrant colour spectrum. This effect is achieved through the application of liquid crystal ink to the surface of the black ABS printed part, changing as the surface temperature reaches 25-30 degrees Celsius. Tools & Software Used: Solidworks, Keyshot Rendering, 3D Printing, Bespoke lighting design, Smart Materials – SFXC, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign, Dissertation document printed with Pixart Printing.
