MA work

I’m serious about design, yet I don’t take myself so seriously. I’m creative, multi-cultural and passionately questioning of the automobile and my relationship to it.


While working for some of the most contrasting car brands, I took on the RCA with the goal of achieving an emancipated design ideology. I’m deeply interested in making automotive design relevant to cultural / technological contexts and determined to use it as the means to make a progressive imprint on the flow of modern culture.
