I seek to challenge conventional notions of design while maintaining a humanitarian spirit.
I’ve been part of amazing projects including several projects throughout Africa that bring educational and health initiatives to communities in need and award-winning healthcare projects.
My work is greatly influenced by observation and collaboration
