ABOUT
I work at the intersection of design, foresight, policy, and innovation, using qualitative and mixed-methods research to make sense of complex systems and inform action. My work connects everyday behaviours and lived experience with broader social, technological, and policy shifts, across projects in the UK, Europe, Australia, and India.
What I do
Research
Understanding people, systems, and emerging trends to inform decisions and foresight.
Foresight
Exploring alternative futures, spotting weak signals, and mapping strategic pathways.
Strategy
Translating insight into actionable recommendations for organizations and policy.
Design
Creating tangible solutions, artefacts, and experiences that bring ideas to life.
CLIENT WORK
Retention Research for an Indian Fintech
Freelance UX Researcher
I supported a short-term retention research study for a large Indian fintech platform, exploring user behaviours, motivations, and trust across critical moments in the customer journey.
Through in-depth interviews and mixed-method synthesis, I identified key opportunity areas and translated insights into journey maps and strategic narratives presented to senior leadership to inform retention and engagement strategies.

New Economy Exhibition for Oxfam Novib
Design Consultant
I contributed to a speculative exhibition on the New Economy through futures-led artefact design and collaborative worldbuilding.
My role focused on synthesising diverse artefacts and perspectives, translating complex policy and social themes into an accessible, narrative-driven outcome that supported collective sense-making.

Pack of Possibilites for [y]our2040
Futures Researcher
I designed and delivered the Pack of Possibilities, a curated set of 100 future-oriented global innovations mapped using STEEP and time-horizon frameworks to support backcasting at the 2025 [y]our2040 gathering in La Punt, Switzerland.
I also co-authored the gathering report, synthesising on-site observations and interviews into key insights.

ACADEMIC PROJECTS
Participatory Governance for Data Centres
Master’s Thesis | Royal College of Art, London
For my master’s thesis, I collaborated with an Irish local council to explore participatory governance approaches for data centre development.
I led the project through desk research, expert interviews, future scenario planning, and a roadmapping workshop, and designed a practical toolkit to support more inclusive, community-led decision-making around digital infrastructure.

Future of Ocean Technology in the Arctic
Design Sprint | NOC and RCA London
A speculative futures project exploring how technology, governance, and ecological stewardship in the Arctic could evolve under different socio-technical pathways.
Through worldbuilding, scenario development, and artefact design, the project examined Indigenous-led futures, extractive technological races.

More-than-human Card Game
Volunteer Project | Design for Good and RCA London
I designed and tested a role-playing card game to help school students in India explore environmental issues through a more-than-human lens.
The game introduced systems thinking by encouraging players to consider the perspectives of ecosystems and non-human species, and was iteratively refined through classroom testing and observation.
