Interaction & Service Design Consultant
I’m deeply curious about the unknown future, the impact of emerging technologies, and the role design and innovation play in shaping the good and evil in the world, influencing how we live, think and act in our ever-changing reality. Recently, I’ve been mentoring on ADPList.org and running Femmes Designers Ltd, a platform that amplifies the voices of artists, designers and scholars pushing the boundaries in STEAM fields.
As an service designer with with over a decade of industry experience. my role involves understanding client needs and people’s expectations to inform the design of service-focused digital strategies and user experiences. My area of focus is rooted in understanding the contextual constraints and opportunities of a user’s routine or emerging behavioural patterns, both environmental and psychological.
With a hybrid background in communication design and interaction design, I have a user-centred approach to the work that I do whether for physical, conceptual or digital products. My interest lies in the versatility of project areas and design contexts, giving way for continuous personal growth and cultural learning.
Beyond project work, my research interests involve collaborative practices, ubiquitous computing, consumer electronics, smart cities, behaviour design and social sustainability. I am highly passionate about the intersection between art, science and technology where design can contribute to various layers of daily life, such as to the evolution of behaviour practices, whether social or environmental.
