Creative Director | Innovation Design Engineer | Screen Based Artist · Human-Centered Technology · Brand Systems
A creative thinker and maker at the intersection of complex systems, human behavior, and forward-thinking design with deep academic and practical grounding in human-machine interaction and the behavior of the human operator within complex systems. Armed with dual master's degrees from Imperial College London (MSc) and the Royal College of Art (MA) alongside a BFA in Screen Based Arts from Bezalel Academy, the academic foundation is as broad as it is deep.
Designing across both screen and physical reality. From culturally resonant brand campaigns, AI-integrated experiences, and screen-based storytelling rooted in aesthetics, composition, and the psychology of perception, to patent-pending wearable technology, spatial design systems, and high-fashion innovation. Every product and innovation under the 0d umbrella carries a unified naming architecture — ex0d, bi0d, bl0d, id0d, 0dls, 360d, etc. — a deliberate brand language built on the same systemic philosophy that made Apple's "i" ecosystem iconic. A founder, combat veteran, and lifelong learner who believes the best way to understand something is to build it. Strategic and organized in thinking, tangible and fearless in execution.
SELECTED HIGHLIGHTS
-
Developed bi0d; atai 1.0d: a Web3-enabled blockchain biometric authentication proof of concept integrating Raspberry Pi, fingerprint sensor, solenoid lock, 4G LTE/GSM, MetaMask, and NFT-based encryption through pixel sorting and databending algorithms, demonstrating the viability of decentralized identity management and ownership economy applications across multiple industries.
-
Developed bl0d; ROM 1.0d: a patent-pending wearable technology integrating medical science, military strategy, and civilian safety, designed to transform emergency care in high-risk environments including combat zones and crisis scenes — an automated tourniquet system.
