I listen closely to how people experience and navigate spaces, and I use that understanding to shape design and strategy decisions that make a real difference. Whether I’m walking through a station, hospital, or court, I can’t help but observe the signage—what’s missing, what’s working, and what we can learn to make things better.
I’ve worked across a range of projects in healthcare, transport, justice, and commercial spaces, always aiming to create systems that are functional, thoughtful, and genuinely useful. I enjoy combining user insights with design clarity and am especially interested in using tools like VR to test how systems perform before they’re built.
Designing with care is what drives me—making sure the end result works not just on paper, but in the real world.
I find it therapeutic to build 3D models of interesting buildings in my spare time. It’s like sketching—just in another dimension.
