Community, Co-creation + Circular Economy.
As a socially engaged and sustainable design consultant, educator and researcher I work on projects in collaboration with charities, non-profits and local communities on socially inclusive and equitable opportunities that promote wellbeing through participatory community arts engagement, textile craft and storytelling with creative reuse of local waste stream materials.
