Summary
I'm dedicated to shaping the landscape of Research and Development in the realm of innovative technologies and architecture. Trained in the method Visual Thinking Strategies, I harness the power of art not only to fuel my own creative thinking but also to inspire innovative thought processes in others. I am a systems-oriented thinker and designer in my work with biodesign and biomaterials as they intersect with architectural design. This fusion of disciplines allows me to envision and craft solutions that go beyond the conventional boundaries, resulting in designs that are both functional and environmentally conscious. Through strategic stakeholder engagement and investigative research, I shape bio-polymer fabrication for applications ranging from art installation to landscape architecture. With a synergy of advanced technologies, purposeful design, and a deep understanding of ecological systems, my work drives positive change and facilitates the transition towards a more sustainable future.
