As the creative director and co-founder of The Social Canvas Projects, I work on the formulation and conceptualisation of our initiatives and projects, as well as managing the creative and visual output of the organisation. Leveraging my background in the creative arts and social sciences, I aim to shape our projects by integrating these disciplines. By curating sociology through cross-disciplinary collaborations that engage creative knowledge practices, I strive to make sociological ideas public while maintaining rigorous sociological inquiries into contemporary social issues.
