about me
i have been passionate about design from a young age, always drawing, building and coming up with ideas. my father introduced me to design showing me the world of architecture which fuelled my curiosity into looking at other design disciplines. i was drawn to product design as it blends both the aesthetic detailing and technical issues that interest me. i get a great buzz from the whole design process. i want to design products that enhance our lives but in a sustainable, responsible way so we have a future in which we can design for.
honours project
overview
drinking water is an important part of life, without it our bodies would not function properly. it is recommended that we drink six to eight glasses of water a day to prevent dehydration. the urban hydration water station is designed to be implemented at the 2012 london olympic park, aiming to reduce the need for bottled water and provide a hygienic alternative to the drinking fountain.

overview
the tri.c tripod camera allows the user to capture that perfect moment thanks to an array of unique features. its innovative motorised lens head can automatically scan the environment picking up on peoples faces to capture a natural spontaneous moment without the user missing out on the socialising.
career aspirations
i intend to go into the design profession working for a product design consultancy or in house design team. i aspire to eventually design for a company that focuses on high end technology driven products with a key emphasis on sustainable responsible design.
