About me
I’m a multidisciplinary designer, experienced with working on print and digital outputs. Over the past few years, I've worked on grassroots political campaigns, travelled the world as the 'nomadic designer' and seen my work on billboards as far as the Philippines. I've had the pleasure to work with smaller studios such as It's Nice That and Boat Studio, medium sized companies such as IDEO and global organisations like Amnesty International. I like to study the built environment and how humans interact in cities, and always try to see the world from the saddle of my bike. I try to be a mindful designer that has a positive impact through my work. My Spanish... I'm still working on that.

    I undertook this cross-disciplinary masters at the interface of human geography, urban theory and architecture in order to expand my research process. My dissertation explored the experiences of LGBTQ+ people within ‘queer-friendly’ spaces in Asunción, Paraguay through local fieldwork, observations and semi-structured interviews with 15 participants.

    My final project, titled ‘The Nomadic Designer’, was driven by my research into transient work practices. I reached out to my favourite creative practitioners, offering two days of work in exchange for mentoring, travel and lodging. The project questioned traditional notion of internships, and took me to Reykjavík, Istanbul, Belgrade, Zurich, Berlin, Copenhagen and Amsterdam.
