So far my work has been within and around music, art, fashion and advertising - with a focus in typography, editorial and digital and print design. More recently - inspired by authors such as Mark Fisher and Marc Augé - I have began to formulate a heavily research-based side practice, investigating the intersection of sociology, culture, design and technology. I spent 2018 out working internships - with de_form in Budapest, and Grey London and Droga5 in London.

WILL GRAPHIC DESIGN RUIN MY LIFE?
An investigation into the political, cultural, and social effects of working as a graphic designer. The exploration is divided up into selected discussion areas, which aim to analyse three main areas of within the graphic designers career: becoming, working and growing. The inspiration to investigate this topic was influenced mostly by my own experiences, and so the discussion is often initially raised with auto-ethnographic reflection to aid the exploration into wider political, cultural and social meanings and understandings.
