I am a design historian, researcher, and writer. I am an Associate Lecturer for the School of Art, Architecture and Design at London Metropolitan University, and a PhD Candidate at IUAV in
the History of Design. My research interests lie in the area of design and politics, international trade in design and crafts, and twenty century design more broadly. Previously, I have worked for major design and architectural organisations (Victoria and Albert Museum, Architectural Association) where I oversaw the running of global architectural and cultural programmes and fostered key relationships with a wide network of practitioners, thinkers and makers.
