At Open Future Lab we focus on exploring and designing financial life through transdisciplinary and creative research. I look for ways to learn about people’s lives and create artefacts, frameworks and concepts that foster long-term thinking, building resilient, inclusive communities of freedom and joy.

Two decades in multidisciplinary and strategic design, combined with an ongoing PhD journey exploring human-centred financial well-being and extensive lecturing in research design, qualitative methods, design thinking and creative entrepreneurship have enriched my approach to financial life design.

In recent times, research has been dismissed as too complex, slow, costly or not applicable enough, yet I’m inspired by the breakthroughs it quietly drives. Seeing how transdisciplinary approaches can spark real-world impact motivates me to spotlight the transformative power of thoughtful inquiry.
