RECENT WORK
Re/Placed Documentary Co-creating a documentary alongside Eleanor Jolliffe investigating how climate change currently and is set to affect the way people live in the Andean region of South America. It looks to shed light & offer meaningful understanding of the issues around rural -> urban climate migration, over-urbanisation & post-colonialism.
Urban areas, despite only using about 2% of the earth's landmass, host the vast majority of carbon emissions, and an increasingly large proportion of the global population. Informal settlements are expanding rapidly, and they, alongside other urban areas are not built to cope with the coming climatic stresses in store.

Dates: 01.09.23 - Present Design Museum Talk Nominated to design and present a manifesto for the ‘Manifestos for a New Generation’ event at the Design Museum. My manifesto focused on how community involvement can help adapt London to the various socio-economic-environmental changes shaping it.
MASc, Masters Thesis (Capstone) In my final project at LIS I designed a tool to communicate the complexity of climate migration, to democratise discourse around the subject and to reduce or mitigate the effect climate change has on forced displacement.
It does this through communicating & helping people discover and develop holistic strategies to effectively tackle the systems of and leading to forced climate displacement. For the piece I received a distinction (80%).
