"The great project for design is to help people decarbonise their lives"

Words can be doves or bullets, choose wisely.
I connect with external communities and organisations to bring them together with Imagination researchers in order to form collaborations on research and projects – I like to think that what I do enables others to make people’s lives better.
Currently producing the Imagination podcast, leading on the Imagination website updates, and facilitating the Adapting Together ECR Network. Also writing a ‘collaboration document’ which will de-mystify how external organisations can benefit from collaborating with design researchers.
I am a part-time PhD candidate within ImaginationLancaster looking at equitable engagement, improving connections between researchers and local communities and organisations, and a hoopy frood who always knows where her towel is.
