  • About

    Industrial Designer trained at Central Saint Martins with a multidisciplinary background spanning product design, digital design and development. My career has evolved through building high-performing eCommerce platforms and visual identities, but my core passion remains in designing physical products and experiences. I am now seeking opportunities to return to product design, bringing a commercially grounded, user-focused and technically informed approach.
