̌
designing, thinking, writing, speaking.
Designer, writer, and sometimes educator, I use design as a way of communicating and investigating the complex relationships between environment, society, and technology.
I began exploring different ways design can play role in discourse while I was a student at the Royal College of Art. Today I am interested in exploring design principles that engage with ecological thinking and metabolic friction in relation to the product and consumption of design. When I’m not thinking about these things I am working as a UX designer at Samsung.
