About the Squirrel

I’d like to think of myself as an audacious squirrel finding my way in thefield of design.

As a graduate squirrel, I come with many new skills and talents. Like allgood squirrels I am smart, shrewd, adaptable, resourceful, friendly andcreative.

The way I see it is I’ve got to keep storing nuts - my design works - sothat I can target design studiosand find a like-minded squirrel troupe to team up with to fight against harshclimate and predatorsto make a favourable difference in the world.
