WORK TOGETHER
Every project begins with understanding what lies beneath the surface. Whether you’re building a brand, developing a product or navigating your next stage of growth, I bring together strategy, creativity and cultural insight to help create work that is thoughtful, commercially relevant and built to last.

PRODUCT, CRAFT & TEXTILE STRATEGY
Guide product and collection development through craft knowledge, material exploration and strategic direction, helping teams create cohesive, commercially relevant collections.
EXPRESS
A brand becomes memorable through the way it communicates. This stage focuses on shaping visual language, product narratives and creative experiences that help people connect with your brand in meaningful and lasting ways.
COLOUR, CULTURE & TREND DIRECTION
Translate cultural shifts, consumer behaviour and everyday observations into colour palettes, material directions and creative opportunities that feel relevant, distinctive and commercially informed.
CREATIVE DIRECTION
Develop cohesive visual narratives across products, campaigns and brand experiences, ensuring every touchpoint reflects your brand with clarity, consistency and emotional resonance.
