About

I am a product design engineer. As such, I bridge the gap between various technical, business and creative fields. My experience has been wide and varied. Products I have worked on have won Australian Design Awards, and the internationally recognized Red Dot award. Products I have worked on recently include the Cyclone ‘Lock and Load’ wheel barrow, Dyson DC30/31 handheld vacuum cleaner, Dyson dual channel floor tool, and Dyson DC39 cylinder vacuum.

I am currently a Research Fellow at RMIT at the Centre for Design, and director of Froth Design and Glowpear. Feel free to email to discuss relevant opportunities.
