I’m a strategic designer and public sector professional based in Lutruwita / Tasmania. I’m interested in how design can bring people together, make complex challenges clearer and turn ideas into meaningful change.
My path into design has been shaped by working within the systems I hope to improve. Since 2017, I’ve worked in the Tasmanian Government across policy and projects, including mental health, suicide prevention and alcohol and other drugs. Alongside this, I’m completing my third year in the Bachelor of Design at the University of Tasmania.
Working across government and creative practice has taught me to look beyond the immediate problem, to the relationships, decisions and experiences that shape it. I ask questions, listen for perspectives that may be missing and create opportunities for people to help shape what happens next.
I bring curiosity, creativity and practical experience to my work, with a focus on helping people understand complexity and find a way forward together.

Beyond the desk.
Outside work, I’m drawn to nature, yoga and the pleasure of making things with my hands. That might mean drawing, painting, printmaking or screen printing one week; sewing, craft or building furniture the next. I love cooking and baking, too.
