My practice is centred on building better futures within the design industry; be it by questioning our tools, methodologies, outputs, or the social systems we create and operate within. These principles lead me to work on my PhD, which seeks to understand how social structures exist within the Australian communication design industry.

Recently, I have been teaching design within the university sector, assisting as a sessional academic, publishing written pieces and working as the primary carer for my first child.

I'm currently looking for full-time, contract or freelance design work. Get in touch to discuss.
