I am a designer/ maker by training who finds work centres around two things in conversations with people: methods of communication between humans, culture and machines, and patterns drawn from small things in life. I am keen on creating experiences to alleviate pain points and humanise technology through design pragmatically. Concurrently, I am passionate about crafting and making - why I studied BA textile - to turn heritage into an aesthetically fabricated surface using my eye for details and geometry and hand for composing.
