Kia Ora! I'm a Multi-Disciplinary Industrial Designer with over 8 years of experience currently based in Auckland, New Zealand.
Design, to me, is more than a profession - it's a conversation between form and function, a dance of aesthetics and utility. I strive to create products that don't just exist but communicate, resonate, and connect with users on a meaningful level.
My design journey has been as varied as it has been exciting - ranging from product and furniture design to crafting immersive exhibitions and refining user experiences. Having lived in both London and Sydney and now back in Aotearoa, my global experiences have shaped my approach to design, allowing me to bring a world of insights to every project.
A significant chapter of my career has been spent in China, where I partnered closely with manufacturers, immersing myself in production processes. This hands-on experience has endowed me with invaluable insights into the tangible realities of bringing designs to life, from the first sketch to the final product.
Collaborating with international clientele has honed my expertise in consumer electronics and the intricacies of manufacturing, enriching my portfolio with a blend of global innovation and Kiwi ingenuity.
