About

Product design through research and prototyping

I am a product designer and creative technologist based in London, with a background in Product Design at the Central Academy of Fine Arts and Creative Robotics at University of the Arts London.

My work combines design research, physical prototyping and emerging technologies to create interactive products, wearable systems and responsive experiences. I am particularly interested in how movement, sensory feedback and intelligent behaviour can support communication and emotional expression.

I develop projects from early research and concept development through interaction design, mechanical structures, electronics and working prototypes. Alongside technical development, I use visual communication and documentation to make complex ideas clear and accessible.

I am currently seeking opportunities in product design, interaction design and creative technology, with a particular interest in research-led projects and hands-on prototyping.
