I’m Jeff, a designer and educator. At Central Saint Martins, I Stage Lead and Lecture on the BA Product and Industrial Design course and occasionally work with MA Industrial Design. I’m also a Design Researcher and Project Coordinator with the Design Against Crime Research Lab. My practice involves collaborative human-centred design methods for social purpose.

During this PgCert, I hope to develop my academic practice in ways that better help me help students think critically and creatively.
