About

A curiosity driven multidisciplinary creator & innovator working at the subtle compatibility and intersectionalities between science, design and technology. Constantly improving his knowledge and craft by blending a desire to drive social sustainability with his passion for design innovation in accessible, adaptable and intuitive ways.

Epicue is a low cost heat stress management solution for workers in high heat environments via continuous epifluidic sweat monitoring. Powered by sweat, it provides real-time cues about heat stress levels, prompting informed actions. As global temperatures surge, workers, especially in construction, face heightened heat-related risks. These risks endanger lives and also elevate project costs. Conceptualised and developed as a team project with Selene Sarı, Orestis Neokleous and Seb Tam; we discovered the absence of an affordable, universally-comprehensible personal heat monitoring tool tailored for this vast demographic.
