3 things you can’t live without: My passport, queso, iphone apps.

What’s your superpower? Never losing sight of the big picture, and baking earl grey shortbread.

What do you listen to while creating? Either stone cold silence or Eminem at top volume.

Favorite TV show: Does F1 count?

What (or who) inspires you? My friends.

Advice for young creatives? Duplicate. Duplicate. Duplicate your layouts frequently as you're designing and experimenting. It lets you rapid fire try a bunch of things as they spring to mind. Then you can go back through to see what layouts, or elements, are working best to combine and refine from there.

What’s on your bucket list for the next year? Moving to a new apartment.
