About Me

I'm a product designer who thrives on turning complex challenges into intuitive, engaging user experiences. With a strong eye for detail and a deep focus on user needs, I craft thoughtful, scalable solutions that balance creativity, strategy, and functionality.

My work is shaped by curiosity and a love for learning—whether it’s exploring new places, experimenting with photography, or nurturing my indoor garden. These interests inspire fresh perspectives and fuel the creativity I bring to every project.
