About Me:
I am an immersive systems designer based between London and North East Fife. I am fascinated by the challenge of creating new narrative forms for diverse audiences using currently emerging technologies.
In my work at GSA and beyond, I have developed prize-winning virtual environments that exploit the storytelling potentials of immersive media to explore relationships between technology, remembrance/forgetting, participation and the built environment.
In July 2022, I graduated with a First from the first cohort of the BSc in Immersive Systems Design at The Glasgow of Art. My practice combines this rigorous technical foundation in the craft and science of 3D modelling and XR development, interdisciplinary research skills in history, science and design, and design thinking.
In September 2022, I joined Buro Happold in London as a Geospatial 3D Web Mapping & Game Developer.
