A Southeast Asian design strategist for decolonial sustainability and regeneration; an adept trickster, complexity navigator and creative destroyer. Professional heartbreaker specialising in sledgehammer arts.

I am in the business of decolonising the futuring industries, with a precise, targeted approach to disarming, disabling and dismantling colonial designs, perspectives, and systems.

I break hearts by showing folk how sustainability is colonial. I provide folk with the skills to interrogate coloniality and to embody decolonisation authentically in their contexts.

When we leave power dynamics out of design, we perpetuate colonial hegemony's status quo. I don't want a net zero world. I don't want a reforested world.

Decolonial justice, reparations and sovereignty - this is the only ethical route to planetary regeneration.
