ABOUT ME
I am a Futurist Designer, Creative Strategist and Social Entrepreneur, with research interests involving venturing into uncharted territories to seek inspiration in the most unexpected places.
At the core of my design philosophy lies sustainable innovation and social entrepreneurship. As a designer and researcher, I am committed to collaborative exploration and empathetic thinking, crafting solutions that make a tangible impact. I specialise in weaving together creativity and strategic vision to build inclusive systems. With a growing passion for multidisciplinary envisioning practices, I'm delving into the realms of futurist research. My professional journey includes substantial experience in creative strategy and social entrepreneurship, and I now attempt to fuse imaginative foresight with practical solutions. I aim to inspire and connect through intuitive designs, while actively contributing to the development of inclusive and sustainable systems.
