I am a multi-award-winning designer specialising in the creation of narrative environments. I design and curate all kinds of spaces that tell stories and provide creative leadership for commercial, arts, cultural, and heritage projects.
Holding over 10 years experience in this area, I have worked with world-class museum, exhibition and experience design studios such as RAA and Event, festivals such as Secret Garden Party and The London Festival of Architecture, immersive theatre companies such as Punchdrunk and Secret Cinema, and with cultural institutions such as Science Gallery and Wessex Museums Trust.
Alongside my practice and role as an Associate Lecturer, I’m involved in managing student collaborations between Central Saint Martins and external partners and have co-led projects and workshops for Museum of the Future, The British Museum, Firmenich Fine Fragrances, Tezenis and De Beers.
Inspired by the various ways that story can map on to space to create compelling and memorable experiences, my approach is to seek out innovative ways to truly engage and immerse visitors within the world of the story using a variety of methods, media and technologies.
Also a musician, I’m passionate about music and interested in exploring how innovation can be brought to music experiences using multi-platform storytelling.
