About

I’m an Industrial & Experience Designer originally from Cape Town, South Africa, now based in the United States. My background spans industrial design, graphic design, and visual experience, which has shaped the way I think about products, interactions, and the broader experiences around them.

I began studying industrial design in Cape Town before continuing my education at the Savannah College of Art and Design, where I earned a B.F.A. in Industrial Design and an M.A. in Graphic Design and Visual Experience. That mix of physical and visual design has given me a broad perspective on how products are shaped, communicated, and experienced.

Throughout my career, I’ve worked across consumer electronics, wearables, safety equipment, smart home, and lifestyle products for global brands including Honeywell, Kohler, Shure, Resideo, HP, Reebok, and Fossil. My work has contributed to numerous utility and design patents and has been recognized with international design awards.

I’m especially interested in the space where physical and digital experiences begin to blur. I like thinking about products not as isolated objects, but as part of a broader interaction that can move between form, interface, behavior, and environment. That intersection is often where I find the most interesting design opportunities.

I care about creating work that feels thoughtful in use, clear in intent, and visually compelling.
