About me

I'm a furniture and product designer with a first-class degree in Furniture & Product Design and over 7 years of industry experience. My professional background spans commercial furniture, luxury kitchen design, and high-end home accessories, giving me a well-rounded perspective on both functional and refined design. A number of my commercial furniture designs are available to purchase at John Lewis, and are high-sellers for the department store.
Alongside my practice, I'm a design educator at Nottingham Trent University, where I've been teaching for the past five years. I specialise in CAD, drawing skills, design context and design history, supporting students in developing both technical skills and critical thinking.
I'm highly proficient in SolidWorks, product visualisation, rendering, and the Adobe Suite. In addition to my teaching role, I run an independent design practice, offering furniture and product design, engineering, and rendering services.
