BACKGROUND

Hi, my name is Zoey. I’m an Interior Designer with a passion for creating spaces that are not only visually stunning but also highly functional. As a recent graduate from RMIT University, I’m ready to bring innovative, well-crafted design solutions to life—whether it's for residential, workplace, or public spaces.

My background in physiotherapy gives me a unique advantage in understanding ergonomics, spatial planning, and human-centered design. Having worked with office workers and patients to optimize their environments, I have a deep appreciation for the importance of comfort and functionality in every space. My experience in creating environments that promote health, and well-being naturally led me to interior design, where I can continue to focus on enhancing the quality of life through thoughtful, purposeful design. By blending my knowledge of human anatomy with design principles, I aim to create spaces that are not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional, comfortable, and supportive of the people who use them.

Proficient in AutoCAD, SketchUp, and Adobe Creative Suite, I’m equipped to produce technical drawings, 3D visualizations, and creative design concepts that balance aesthetics with practicality.

I’m excited to contribute my creativity, problem-solving skills, and attention to detail to a dynamic design team, and help create spaces that truly enhance the lives of their users.
