About ->
- PhD, MSc, BA (Hons)
- Product (Object) Design
- Tangible Interaction Design
- Design Research/ UX/ HCD
I am a multidisciplinary designer, researcher, and educator with a PhD in interaction design and a deep passion for creating experiences that strengthen our connections with ourselves, others, and the natural world. Working at the intersection of object and interaction design, I focus on crafting tangible, embodied interfaces that embrace playful, full-body interactions, prioritising ‘slow’ and ‘rich’ experiences.
My practice combines research-driven insights, hands-on experimentation, and strategic planning to deliver impactful solutions that move beyond ‘what is given’ and imagine ‘what could be.’ Leading a multi-year research project during my PhD deepened my commitment to iterative exploration, resilience, adaptability — a mindset I bring to every project.
Collaboration is central to my process. With over six years of teaching experience, I’m dedicated to fostering environments where every voice is heard and ideas can flourish. Whether leading a workshop or facilitating co-design session, I’m in my element when helping others unlock their creativity.
If you have a purpose-driven project in mind, let’s connect on LinkedIn to discuss what we could create together. 💬
