My work is about making the world a happier place. My final year project got to the heart of the matter; I designed a framework that helps people explore and understand their well-being better.

The framework was expressed through a toolkit, including a guide, film and activity cards amongst other objects. Trials show that the framework does work and can help people understand themselves better.

I arrived at this idea through an intense research process, comprising not only secondary research into positive psychology and other areas, but also through taking on a superhero persona for two months in order to be more giving.

This led to finding out a great deal more information, not only from my personal experience, but because everyone would want to know why I was dressing as a superhero. This lead to discussion and further idea generation.

I've studied at Goldsmiths, Nottingham Trent and Ravensbourne. I've had numerous jobs, from being a vampire in a horror house to doing PR at Designersblock.

I've also won a few small awards, from getting into New Designers as a first year to an award for spreading happiness as The Optimist.
