Born and raised in Northern Ireland with two older brothers, I grew up surrounded with a picturesque countryside as well as a wide variety of scents. I am a creative person who is always seeking out new ways to design. I believe a spark of creativity can never be extinguished whether it is through food, architecture, or art. My head is constantly buzzing with ideas, new objectives, or potential business ideas. As someone who is dyslexic, I can’t help but visualise images before the words. I am like a moth to a lamp when it comes to design captivated by colour, form, and the inspiring scenes around me. However, that’s just a part of it. Design is my life. It’s my roller-coaster. It is something I do before going to sleep, and something that makes me excited to get up in the mornings. Without it, my world would be black and white. Being at University has opened my eyes to the possibilities of a career within design in which one day I wish to be passing on the skills I have learnt onto others.
