About Me

I'm an artist and designer.
My mother is Scottish/East Indian and my father German. My extended family live in Troon, Scotland (and other places around the globe) - I love it there.
I love cooking, learning about and collecting new music, design books/mags, philosophy, liberal politics, new restaurants, travelling, animals, painting/drawing, and wandering around aimlessly. So yeah...
