I lead the creative team at the Future Laboratory, which translates insights into immersive experiences on and offline and brings to life speculative visions of the future. With a background in critical design, I am an expert in developing far future scenarios that consider long-term implications of today’s trends. I am fascinated by innovations emerging at the intersection of creative practice and technology and strive to push the boundaries of digital tools and formats to develop new ways of delivering insight. In the past year, I have worked with brands including UBS, Diageo, Google, LVMH and Design Hotels.
