About
Lateral problem solving Industrial Designer and budding social entrepreneur.
I have extensive experience from exposure to a range of market industries and countries from Olympic athlete performance consultation to brand and experience design, from product design and design for manufacture to UI and web-design.
I pride myself on 'having a go' and building skills through experience with others in a diverse range of competencies. To balance design for corporate clients, I am also heavily involved in developing overseas and local NGO projects and artistic initiatives using design thinking to effectively understand and deliver proven results for those in true need.
