About me

I am a material exploration designer specialising in knitted textiles. In my work I enjoy experimenting with different techniques and processes to explore the aesthetic and functional properties of textiles and consider how these can be applied. I am eager to learn new skills and develop my creative practice gaining experience within different design studios. Please contact me and request for my portfolio to see more of my process and my work.
