Design is not about solving problems,
Design is about asking better questions.
For me, design is shifting and doesn’t always take the traditional solutionist approach. As a socially engaged, research driven designer, I aim to not only create solutions but also to produce discussions, reflections and behavioural change.
Interested at what happens at the intersection of social, ecological and political matters and interested in participatory speculative design, but critical of the fact it often exists in a vacuum. I am passionate about bringing it outside of the museum-gallery sphere and working alongside people to collectively challenge the status quo in order to drive change and enable us as a collective society to imagine and build the futures we desire.
Ultimately, I want to use design to create a meaningful impact in peoples' lives. This impact doesn’t always have to be big or on a large scale but it is important to me that it’s meaningful and empathy-driven in balance with being commercial
