“If necessity is the mother of invention then we should design for people's needs, not wants”
I was born, raised and educated in Sydney, Australia. As a designer I believe in democratic design and sustainability in design. My design approach is largely influenced by my international experience, with several years spent living, studying and working in Barcelona-Spain, Mexico City -Mexico ,Ciudad Del Este -Paraguay and Hanoi-Vietnam.
