Suzie is an artist, designer, and researcher from the San Francisco Bay Area currently living in London where she recently completed an MA in Material Futures at Central Saint Martins.

Broadly, she’s interested in socio-ecological systems. She has a background in fiber & printmaking & has been working in sustainable fashion since 2017. Her making & research practice is directed towards exploring climate resilience, circularity, greenwashing, & regenerative design. She engages with these themes using speculative, clothing, material, service, & social design.

She's shown her artwork in Colorado & California, & her design work in the UK and the Netherlands.


I’m open to work! Please reach out regarding my availability for workshops, material consulting, or design & visual research.
