I am a multidisciplinary designer and researcher crafting equitable systems at the intersection of cities, culture, and care. My practice blends foresight, design, and spatial storytelling to imagine more just and delightful urban futures. Currently at Arup as a Senior Foresight Analyst, I help cities and organisations navigate complexity and design for long-term resilience through strategic foresight and design futures.

Foundation

My journey is grounded in analytical rigour and creative inquiry. I’ve always been fascinated by systems: how they function, how they fail, and how they shape our experiences. My journey began at the London School of Economics (LSE), where I studied operational research and learned to model complexity with precision. That led me to Goldman Sachs, where I explored financial systems and business strategy from the inside. This foundational experience taught me to view systems not just as mechanisms to be understood, but as experiences to be shaped.

Design Practice

I transitioned to design by pursuing a Master’s in Interaction Design at the Copenhagen Institute of Interaction Design (CIID), later deepening my creative practice at the School for Poetic Computation. My approach to all systems work is research-driven and trauma-informed, always centring care, agency, and emotional nuance. My thesis, exploring intimacy after sexual assault, was honoured as a Core77 Design Award Winner and exhibited at Milan and Dubai Design Weeks.

Cities as Archives

In my free time, I explore cultural memory and urban semiotics through independent projects. This includes a mapping project on Hong Kong’s street names, which critically examines place, identity, and the politics of memory and was featured in both Bloomberg and the HK Free Press.
