WHY DESIGN?

I’ve always been a creator at heart, shaped by years of playing piano and flute, alongside drawing, painting, and crafting. Design became my medium because it gave my creative drive a clear purpose: turning messy, real-world problems into tools that are actually intuitive and easy to use.

What drives me as a designer is the challenge of making complex things feel simple. Whether I’m digging into user insights or building out interactive prototypes, I thrive in that middle phase of design where chaos turns into clarity. My goal is to design tools that solve real problems while making the day-to-day experience of using them actually enjoyable.

I love a good gatcha game, roll to see what fills my time outside of design!
