I am a multidisciplinary designer bridging industrial design and digital product design. With three years of experience in yacht furniture design as an industrial designer, I built a strong foundation in manufacturing, materials, and detail-driven problem solving. I supported this background with a Master’s in Human-Computer Interaction at University College Dublin, further developing my practice in UX and UI. I am developing my skills across 3D modelling, branding, and frame-by-frame animation, using motion and interaction to communicate design intent and enhance user experience across both physical and digital touchpoints. My goal is to create holistic design solutions where usability, functionality, and high-fidelity aesthetics come together.
