A note on practice
Children and women are not just the audience of my work; they are its co-authors. The questions they ask are the ones I try to design around.

At Sheffield Hallam's Lab4Living, in the UK.
I'm mid-way through an MFA in Design & Healthcare — a year that has moved through Belgium with LUCA School of Arts, Portugal with the Care Lab, and now Sheffield, where I'm a researcher-in-residence at Lab4Living.
Before that, five years in Pakistan at Teach For Pakistan, leading strategic communication, design and the gatherings that hold a movement together. And before that, illustration, organising, and a lot of listening.
