‘Having worked as an art director for many years, I translated visual strategy and iden- tities into compelling stories. Now, as a product designer and maker, I apply the same problem-solving skills and aesthetic sensibility to craft hand-turned wooden objects. The fusion of function and play is central to my form language. I construct tall, sturdy silhouet- tes using smaller stackable elements, resulting in functional objects that ignite people’s curiosity about the underlying narrative.’
