About

I am an industrial designer with experience in multiple fields including exhibition & retail design, product design, drafting, visualisation, furniture, interior. I have been working as an industrial designer many years and enjoy the challenges and pace that it delivers.

I would describe myself as a designer who combines an eye for professional and user friendly designs, with practical designs ready and suitable for build / manufacture.

I thrive off problem solving and enjoy nothing more than a “how are we going to do this” project, often finding myself testing new and different ideas in the warehouse with the operations team / external fabricators.

I have a strong interest in developing new / efficient systems and standard operating procedures - never accepting something as the “only way” to do it.
