DISCIPLINE: GRAPHIC COMMUNICATION
CAREER AREA OF INTEREST: UI-UX, Product development
BIO: As a Graphic Communication student on placement year with Deans Arts and Humanities Deans Global Talent Scholarship, my practice is driven by a passion for inclusivity, accessibility, and innovation. I am particularly interested in UI/UX design and product development, where creativity and functionality come together to solve meaningful problems and improve everyday experiences.
Design, to me, is about more than aesthetics—it is about designing for need. This approach led me to develop a sign language innovation, which won the 100 Big Ideas competition and is now being developed into a scalable product. The experience reinforced my interest in combining entrepreneurship with design, creating solutions that break down barriers and reach wider audiences.
I enjoy experimenting with new technologies and mixed media, often blending traditional techniques with emerging tools. A recent highlight was a virtual reality exhibition on multiculturalism, which invited participants to immerse themselves in diverse cultural perspectives. Projects like this deepen my belief in the potential of design to foster empathy, dialogue, and connection.
Looking ahead, I aspire to build a career in UI/UX or product development, creating human-centred solutions that are both impactful and innovative. My goal is to continue learning, experimenting, and contributing to a design practice that is socially responsive and future-focused.
