I’m an opportunistic designer that believes in acting to benefit the environment. I’ve worked in Makerspaces in the UK and Europe and believe that community and resource sharing is the crucial to enacting the systemic change that is required.
I see my approach as being very practical and pragmatic, I research and explore through doing.
I’m co-owner of Sideline Creations, where we engage with exciting, environmentally positive projects centralised around resource sharing and waste reduction.
