✶ Gig worker of the data economy.
✶ Currently freelancing + running PS.
✶ Freelance interdisciplinary strategist + producer.
✶ ½ PITCH STUDIOS™—a design studio + creative consultancy.
✶ Observer trapped in the algorithm bubble.
✶ Fully human, inter alia.
✶ We've all become collectors of information and the pile keeps growing. But what matters most is turning those pieces into a meaningful whole. That's what motivates me—helping connect the dots and turn ideas into realities.
✶ I am an interdisciplinary thinker, researcher and idea architect with a nuanced view on culture, tech and a whole lot of other things. I can borrow concepts from one field and apply them creatively in another. I (occasionally) write and create mindmaps as a way to visually catalog thoughts and ideas.
✶ My diverse interests and knowledge fuel an approach that defies traditional labels—it allows me to tackle challenges creatively and come up with ideas that are applicable across a wide range of projects and industries.
✶ With PITCH STUDIOS™, we are particularly interested in—but not limited to—exploring visual storytelling and world-building narratives powered by emergent and creative technologies.
✶We’ve met at a special moment, in which my practices are changing. Currently, I am interested in exploring:
- An ‘Ecology of Technology’
- The ’Internet of Nature’
- AI interfaces that draw inspiration from natural forms and processes (biomimicry)

Fabrics Of The Future

We've been commissioned by GANNI LAB to create a series of worlds showcasing the iconic Bou bag featured in three earth-friendly materials: Oleatex, BioFluff, and Celium™️ (by Polybion).
Each video will transport you to a unique, "supercharged" environment, highlighting the textural and playful nature of these fabrics.
🫒 Our first exploration features Oleatex, a revolutionary plant-based leather alternative derived from olive oil production waste.
🪷 The second exploration features BioFluff, a highly innovative, next-generation faux fur made using natural plant fibres such as nettle, hemp, and flax sourced from agricultural waste streams.
🫧 The third and final visual exploration showcases Celium™, a premium cultivated cellulose grown by feeding bacteria with agroindustrial fruit waste.

NEW COMPANIONS
link We partnered to explore the potential for the next generation’s evolving relationship with technology. this resulted in 3 months of expert interviews, focus groups, analysis and design iterations.
NEW COMPANIONS envisions coming of age in the era of machine intelligence through a series of speculative hardware designs for new forms of connection.
For the design and art direction we drew inspiration from Y2K and early noughties aesthetics, infusing them with a deliberate contemporary, soft twist.
For texture, we experimented with a palette of metallic silvers and a range of finishes —from super soft and fine smooth surfaces to textured and rough patinas— to create a juxtaposition of textures that added depth to the final designs.

We speculated on the characteristics of this advanced civilization: what it looks like and what its history is, what major environmental shifts, technological milestones, and social revolutions their world went through because of AI.
Additionally, we determined what a cautionary message to humanity might sound like. It was important to maintain an optimistic tone about the long-term implications of AI, which perfectly echoes our current anxieties: humans must embrace technology and proceed not with blind faith in what they build but with caution, foresight, and careful planning.
This intricate narrative became the backbone of an expansive and explorable 3D world. We imagined how an alien planet would look like if it were born into extreme states of existence. The landscapes evolved into a collection of 4,444 unique generative NFTs, each featuring unusual visuals.
An immersive playable experience on the metaverse platform Mona was also built for the audience to explore, find hidden artifacts, uncover more of the overall story, as well as contribute to a gamified, digital collectible experience.
I was tasked with—researching and developing the creative strategy, story, lore, and storytelling approach.

CAT Footwear
The Brief: Devise an innovative brand awareness campaign for the Supercharged Intruder XL—a limited edition sneaker inspired by the metaverse.
The Strategy: Recognizing CAT’s shift and Gen Z's craving for authenticity and self-expression, we suggested co-creation and customization elements to design an interactive digital experience.
The Outcome: We created 4 exaggerated digital extensions of the Intruder XL sneaker that users could customize.
To further enrich the player experience, we also developed a customised web AR try-on experience. The design was influenced by a range of industrial materials and textures, along with visual cues taken from rave culture and virtual interfaces.
