The Apprenticeship in Localness
Craft, when connected to place through apprenticeship, is a tacit learning methodology that is used to connect humans to biodiversity in locality; to understand localness. Designing for biodiversity in locality will help activate regeneration more broadly. It will reframe how we move through the world and how we care for wider biodiversity.

re:Source
This project was nominated for the MullenLowe NOVA Awards for Fresh Creative Talent
At the heart of the project is a Bioreactor that has been designed to grow an edible superfood called Spirulina using urine. re:SOURCE invites people to explore their own relationship with the nutrient cycle by asking them to consider how they feel about food grown with urine.
Would you eat Spirulina grown with your own pee? How about if the urine came from the person standing beside you? These ideas were explored in collaboration with members of the PlusX Innovation Hub in Brighton. In addition to researching notions of social acceptance, the system design required to implement urine recycling at scale was also explored.

The C Cosmology
Guided by the teachings of cannabis L. sativa—a plant colonised and criminalised despite sustaining civilisations and air, soil, water for over 15,000 years—we reconnect what has been severed: humans and nature, inner and outer worlds, personal healing and collective liberation. We call this practice Inner-Regeneration. Because to thrive on this planet requires that we unlearn the toxic ways, and remember how to be human again—together, as a species that is part of the biodiversity.

Prairie Knowledge Holders
We seek to ask, can we reframe passing on generational wealth as passing on generational biodiversity wealth? Where generational extends to include both the human and the more-than-human communities and wealth goes beyond the financial, focusing instead on offering gifts that ensure the health of ecosystems exchanging in mutually beneficial acts of reciprocity.
We learn from the Prairies that diversity helps make healthy lands and bodies so we should incorporate these ways of thinking in our cities and towns with the aim of building ecological roads by gifting seed, sharing knowledge and bringing prairie species across urban borders to shared lands.

Science for Generation Regeneration
This project will be part of the Windermere Science Festival outreach for schools in 2026. The background for this work has been the development of an academic tool called ‘Reductive Lenses’ which allows students to see trends between different aspects of history and society today - and how these relate or reduce to ‘Regeneration OR Degeneration’.

Your Human World
Using the human body as a metaphor, this series of illustrations draws parallels between natural systems and the systems within your body.
Water is more than just a substance—it is the essence of life, woven into all natural systems and I see it as a lens through which we can better understand the interdependence of life, nature, and ourselves.
