Projects
- Transparent Virtual Reality ExperienceTransparent is a virtual reality project that I’ve recently developed. It allows a user to experience the day in the life of someone that’s homeless in the city of Lincoln. It stemmed from a project called adaptive spaces. During the initial research stages I thought about how I had adapted to my space in Lincoln during my time here as a student. I’ve noticed a sufficient increase in homelessness over the last 4 years. Developing the project further I contacted a local homeless charity to furthe
- Konstanze Fashion LookbookKonstanze is a digital fashion look book that I created alongside my dissertation project. Konstanze publicises the relationships between the working woman and her environment and articulates relationship roles behind closed doors. The main focus of the look book is to capture self-expressionism, highlighting the importance of individuality through a range of medium. I sought to find the perfect location for each shoot coinciding with the styling and models.

Exhibition HostThreshold Studios
- Lincoln, United KingdomFreelance
Frequency Festival of Digital Culture is a biennial festival hosted in the city of Lincoln. I was lucky enough to be a part of last year’s event that acts as a platform for celebrating the innovation and creativity a wide range of medium through exhibition. The festivals ethos of “stumble across and engage” allows the general public to explore their curiosity throughout Lincoln city centre. As an exhibition host I worked on a number of installations and was able to communicate with a mass audience as well as having the opportunity to meet some incredible designers and curators from all over the globe and learn and engage with new technology. This experience inspired me to explore with new technology and my own creative consciousness more in depth .

Creative Production AssistantNVS Music Group (Outlook Festival, Dimensions Festival, Sunfall London)
- Pula, CroatiaFreelance
During the last two summers I’ve travelled to Pula, Croatia to work as a CPA for Outlook and Dimensions Festival, two of the largest sound system and culture festivals in Europe. Here, I undertook the challenge of helping setup and create artworks of all medium for both of the festivals, as well as working as a photographer the first summer.
During this period of time I’ve acquired a number of new skills due to working on a variety of projects such as scenic painting, stage décor, the creation of light-box signage for the stages all whilst working consciously and professionally to a time scale as well as working under the pressures of the blazing heat and getting lost in the beautiful surroundings!
One of the most exciting and my favourite opportunities was to VJ on one of the main stages during the festival. Working here for the last two summers has been a great opportunity for me to collaborate and network with other likeminded creatives and create unforgettable memories as well as focus on my own design practice and narratives for future career paths.

Interactive DesignUniversity of Lincoln
- Lincoln, United Kingdom
I’ve just recently completed studying at the University of Lincoln and have proudly graduated
with a (2:1) degree in Interactive Design. Studying such broad-based design course provided many opportunities for the development of innovative thinking, artistic creativity, flexibility and technical ability needed to succeed in the digital design industry. The fundamental structure of the course was the interaction between people, technology and objects which allowed me to work on a variety of hypothetical and real professional briefs as well as developing skills with two-dimensional designs such as responsive apps, digital magazines and print as well as three-dimensional designs which inevitably saw me create a virtual reality experience during my final year as well as experimenting with augmented reality. During my time on the course I also focused my attention on digital media such as photography and videography, audio visual collaborations and graphic design across analogue and digital platforms.
