I use design to make things work

I’m a designer and someone that is constantly trying to understand why things work the way they do and how they relate to each other often forming beautiful complex systems.

A bit about me

I am a collaborative leader. I enjoy bringing people’s diverse perspectives together to collectively co-design a better world.

I think being people-centred is important, yet understanding the system overarching those needs is equally important.

I am passionate about thinking in systems and untangling them to identify root cause problems and not symptoms.
