Designing PRODUCTS, SERVICES AND experiences
that deepen your connection
to impact.
With & For Design Studio is a creative studio for people reshaping global systems. This includes anyone working on the frontiers of global development, humanitarian response, and social impact.
​
Logic alone will not solve our world's most complex and pressing challenges. Creativity helps us see what's possible, which is why we believe that it's essential for navigating this complexity and making lasting, measurable impact.
​
Rooted in human-centred design, ethnography, and participatory research, our approach uncovers what truly matters: people’s needs, motivations, barriers, and lived realities.
​
From there, I help organisations turn insight into action. I design, prototype and test solutions that shift behaviours, improve services, strengthen impact models,
and support long-term systems change.
Whether it’s improving uptake of health services, reimagining community engagement, or embedding innovation within teams, I bring a strategic design lens to every challenge — building solutions with communities, for long-term impact.
HOW I CAN HELP.
PARTICIPATORY RESEARCH & INSIGHT
As a published anthropologist and Harvard-trained design researcher, participatory research is foundational to my work.
I conduct deep, human-centred research—ethnography, qualitative inquiry, and participatory methods—to surface the stories, patterns, and insights that drive better design.
I centre lived experience, elevate community voices, and uncover the deep human insight that will point toward a viable design solution.

CO-DESIGN & DESIGN THINKING
Co-designing interventions means that the community who is closest to the problem are the ones whose knowledge and experience are harnessed to solve it.
Co-design not only builds trust and ownership around an intervention, but it also gives that intervention a greater likelihood of sustainability.
From discovery through prototyping and testing, I use design thinking and HCD to co-create solutions that are inclusive, ethical, and grounded in real-world needs.
I can help you tackle complexity with bold thinking and collaborative energy.
social norm change & behaviour change
Why do we do what we do? This is a complex question that cannot be answered using conventional methods like interviews.
Instead, I join social psychology, anthropology and behavioural economics with creative and bespoke research tools to uncover the subconscious drivers for human behaviour.
I then co-design interventions that shift behaviour and strengthen systems, from nudges to campaigns to services. My approach blends creativity, evidence, and cultural fluency to create lasting impact.
