Just a girl trying to make meaningful, magical things

Born in the year 2000 in a small town in the North East - I’ve been a creative ever since I could be. I studied Graphic Communication (BAHons) and landed a career in User Experience design where I solve real-world problems for members of a Mutual Building Society. I now live in rural Bridgend, South Wales.

In my personal work, I’m passionate about providing design as a communication tool for change. I’m really keen to work on projects that centre around communities, LGBTQIA+ groups, and social impact.

In my spare time you’ll find me picking up a new hobby like painting, sewing, lino-printing - which I try to incorporate into my work! Otherwise I’ll be walking my border collie, or playing video & board games.

If you’re interested in my ranting, I have a blog on Medium.
