(About Me)
Trained in London. Working globally.
I'm a Creative Lead and multidisciplinary designer working across brand, product, and visual storytelling.
My background in Architecture at The Bartlett, UCL continues to shape the way I design. It taught me to think spatially, design in context, and approach problems systematically. Whether creating a physical environment or a digital interface, I'm driven by the same curiosity about how people experience design and the journeys it can create.
Professionally, I soon transitioned from designing built environments to leading branding and marketing design for fintech companies.
Working in a fast-paced, high-stakes industry revealed unexpected parallels with architecture. Both demand creative problem-solving, logical thinking, and the ability to simplify complexity into intuitive experiences. It's this balance of creativity and analytical thinking that I find most rewarding, where design contributes to measurable business outcomes, from increased engagement to business growth.
Having then lived and worked across Europe, the Caribbean, and the United States, I've continued to broaden my perspective. Each place has strengthened my curiosity, adaptability, and openness — qualities that continue to shape both my work and the way I see the world.
Beyond commercial work, I maintain an active drawing practice, taking on private commissions while exploring themes of mythology, philosophy, and the relationship between human consciousness and the natural world, in preparation for future exhibition
(update soon).
I value the tactile experience of creating by hand, using drawing as a way to observe, experiment, and continually refine my visual language.
Perhaps surprisingly, my favourite way to draw is without a preliminary sketch. Working directly in ink leaves no room for erasure, making every line a conscious decision and every drawing an exercise in trust, risk, and expression.
Recently, I started sharing my drawing process and tutorials on Instagram. Come along and follow the journey.
