Designing for Sustainability
Designing for sustainability involves creating comprehensive roadmaps to minimize environmental impact throughout a product's lifecycle. This includes researching materials to select eco-friendly options and collaborating with suppliers to source sustainable alternatives. I assist companies in obtaining certifications like FSC or Climate Neutral Certified to reinforce their commitment to sustainability. By integrating these practices into the design process, I can create products that are environmentally responsible and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Messaging
Helping companies get credit for all the good work they are doing by creating clear, concise messaging and estabilishing design language that helps resonate with consumers. My goal is to create clarity for consumers and avoid greenwashing.
