She draws on over a decade of experience that has led her to explore a multitude of biomaterial, digital and craft fabrication techniques. Zoë is also Materiom's head of Outreach & Education for Europe. Since joining Materiom, she has taken part in regional research projects and teaches at various educational institutions.

Materiom is a research platform dedicated to the experimentation and development of open source biomaterial recipes made using locally abundant ingredients and life-friendly chemistry.
