Make Waves

Falmouth University
2026


Brief (100Proof Competition): Choose a memory, it can be a core life defining moment or small fleeting one, & use it as the foundation to create a new brand.


A sunscreen brand inspired by the “motherly advice” given to children about protecting your skin in the sun. Allow us to give your darling mother a break and do the telling in this department. 

Make Waves is the mother you can carry in your bag asking you to “do better”.  Go outside, take better care of your skin, and be nice to our environments.

The Exoticized East

Falmouth University
2026


Brief: To typeset and produce a physical publication of my 6000 word dissertation.


The Exoticized East explores the influence of orientalism on the ongoing pervasive racism and stereotyping of Asian women.

The physical aspects of this publication are designed to communicate the opposition between Eastern and Western cultures, as well as call out the harsh realities surrounding the treatment of Asian women in/from the West.

MindFull

Falmouth University
2026


Brief: Produce a brand identity and relevant touchpoints that tackle a social/societal/personal “issue”.


MindFull is an independent mental health brand that aims to increase the understanding and processing of emotions in young people (young adults) through increased visualisation of feelings.

The first main outcome for this project is a zine presenting a breakdown of emotions through visual marks and a selection of written responses collected by me from friends, family & peers. Another aspect of this brand is an app that serves as a outlet for emotions, an educator and a companion.




                                                                                                                                      

About Me



As a designer, I am driven by my motivation to create and communicate ideas. I rely strongly on implementing research and craft to produce my outcomes - allowing me to maintain effective rationales and meaning within my work. My practice takes a multidiciplinary approach, not being labelled by specific practices or ideologies.

I specialise in branding, editorial design and creative strategy.
