Jan 2009

Concerned global citizen of artistic leanings involved in snowboarding, photography, graphic design & culinary exploration.

Avid mountain carver and doodler; a dorky outer layer with a gooey adrenaline-charged filling.

Affinities include PANTONE colours, typography, unhealthy hawkers food, fresh fallen pow, Viktor & Rolf, LOLcats, the Queen's english, Italian cashmere, and objects dipped in chrome.

Currently studying advertising art & design, and constantly searching for fellow creative masterminds to plot with on how to seize the Eiffel Tower for my own personal use (FACT!).

Please inquire within.

What is unique that's not in your bio?

I love getting my hands dirty, quite literally. Somehow there's a very satisfying feeling that I get when I come home to find my hands covered in paint stains and ink..

What's your favorite accomplishment?

Being brave enough to escape from the security of studying commerce to pursue a career that truly brings me joy.. No matter how little I will make or how small the cardboard box I will come to live in will be.

How do you define cool?

Creative longevity

What is your secret to uncovering trends?

Being completely open-minded, constantly searching and re-imagining my muses.. A good trend hunting snack to have on the ready is also an immense help. Om nom nom!

What do you enjoy most about Trend Hunter?

Being involved in the community of like-minded, creative and innovative people..

What is your favorite trend?

Cellphones or cool, shiny, useful gadgets made from recycled everyday basics.. Such as Samsung's solar powered Eco Phone made almost entirely of bioplastic.

What are your tips for writing a juicy post?

- Make it personal and relevant to your own lifestyle - Insist that the writing be as honest and unpretentious as possible - Use current and compelling language

How do you reset to be creative?

Having a session of Cooking Mama on the Wii, going shredding on the slopes, and focusing on schoolwork..

What inspires or excites you?

Travel, cinema, world music, food, nature and stand-up comedy..

Predict something awesome for 2020?

A "rise of the mutants" sort of controversy with more and more people who are scientifically enhanced by proxy, such as the case of athletes who became better after a surgery to repair debilitating effects of a fatal accident (enhanced vision, artificial muscle power, etc..)... OR! Death to the Uggs and Crocs footwear monstrosity, but that might just be wishful thinking.
