About Me

Interdisciplinary Designer
I am a London/ Newcastle based designer. Despite my parents being Dutch-Japanese and South African, I grew up in Newcastle and I am currently a student at University of the Arts London- Central Saint Martins.

Much of my philosophy stems from my belief that the best designs derive from originality that can only be rooted in our own experiences. When we speak truthfully of who we are, we naturally speak the truth of others. Therefore, my practice involves a lot of thorough research to gauge a more informed idea of what a brand is at its core and thus build a connection between the message we are conveying and our audience.
