  • Description

    Hi! I am a London-based conceptual and multidisciplinary designer interested in sustainable design and community-led practice. I love travelling and value learning through exchanges with others in hands-on environments. Having worked freelance for the past year in London, I'm feeling a bit stagnant, and I'm missing interacting and learning from different communities. I'm hoping to spend some time this year re-discovering my love for craft, community and nature, away from London.
