Designer/Art Director working across Design, Advertising, Web, Product and Technology, I enjoy combining experimentation, research, and craftsmanship to guide strategic design. I'm always excited to explore new ways to shape the future of design aesthetics.

In my free time, I love mentoring design graduates, practising painting, letterpress, and calligraphy, and I also co-founded a research-led design studio.
