Hey! I am a designer based in Tāmaki Makaurau, Aotearoa.
I am a multidisciplinary designer with an interest in packaging design, product design, 3D design, brand identity, publication design, animation, physical interaction design and print media. I have just completed studying a Bachelor’s in Design and Digital Media at Whitecliffe.
I’m a nerd who loves all things science fiction, cooking, traveling, indie pixel games, and going for walks.
I live in Mount Eden with my wife and plants.
