About me
Highly competent and capable graphic, textile, product, interior and jewellery designer with additional skills in web development. Strive to make environmentally and socially conscious designs that are new and innovative. Achieve this by keeping a diverse array of interests to draw inspiration for innovation and expanding knowledge and experience of numerous fields of design. Besides design, interests include psychology, literature, some traditional but mostly modern art, film and animation, new developments in technology and architecture to name a few. Hope to work in a stimulating, friendly environment where ideas and advice is shared, where my work will be critiqued and I may be able to advise others. I also hope to have the chance to explore new ideas and design techniques in order to create new things and develop as a designer.
