I have just graduated from Unitec with a degree in Art and Design specializing in Object Design.  This year I am planning on starting up my own design business selling my jewellery range and ceramic designs in New Zealand and possibly overseas. 

I am interested in creating domestic objects, and the relationship they form with their users.  All of my work is functional – not in the sense of time efficiency, but to engage people in everyday rituals.  My design approach is driven by tactility, usability and finding a balance between the familar and the element of suprise. 

My products are designed to challenge our thoughts of our everyday objects and rituals.  By reinventing traditional rituals and domestic objects they take on a new reading in each of our lives.
