About
I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a foundation in interior architecture and nearly six years of experience transforming old buildings and creating immersive hospitality spaces. My professional background focuses on reimagining the built environment, especially spaces that carry a strong sense of history and narrative.
My interest in how design connects with people, services, and business led me to pursue a Master’s in Service Design. At the heart of my practice is a desire to explore the connections within our world through design across disciplines, spaces, and experiences.
BeyondCare is a creative support program for current and former pupils from the care system. Through art workshops in non-institutional spaces, participants explore self-expression, build relationships, and gain support from peers with similar experiences. The program is designed to be facilitated by CrossReach, a Scottish charity providing social care services and emotional support. A pre-workshop diary toolkits helps uncover participants’ interests beyond academics and offers educators fresh perspectives on their identities.
