ABOUT ME
I’m a multidisciplinary designer working across product, interaction, motion, and systems. My background in motion design and conceptual art shapes how I approach digital experiences — blending clarity, narrative, and emotional resonance.
I focus on turning complex structures into intuitive, expressive interactions. Whether designing a product ecosystem, crafting a motion system, or prototyping a workflow, I aim to create digital experiences that feel grounded, calm, and human.
I collaborate deeply with engineers, PMs, and stakeholders, translating technical problems into design solutions and design intentions into functional systems.
I also teach motion design, helping emerging designers understand the power of pace, emotion, and visual storytelling — skills I bring into every project I lead.
