Strategic Design Thinking
I design by asking the right questions, aligning with business goals, and obsessing — just the right amount — the user journey.
From brand identities to app ecosystems, I create experiences that are functional, thoughtful, and just a little bit unexpected.
I design by asking the right questions, listening more than I speak — at first, and getting aligned with the messy realities behind the business. From early workshop notes to the tiniest interface details, I treat every part of the process with care. Whether it’s building a product from scratch or refining a brand touchpoint — I aim to make it feel intuitive, intentional, and just a little unexpected.

work — experience
the manifesto
Less buzzwords, more doing
Before I ever touched Figma, I learned design through grids, posters, and paper. Typography rules. Color theory. Composition that made sense before it made noise. I studied how form communicates, how negative space breathes, and how to make one visual choice instead of twenty. That foundation never left. Now I build products — end-to-end apps, complex flows, design systems that grow with teams. I still obsess over alignment, but now it’s between business goals and user needs. I ask a lot of questions. I listen more than I talk. I design onboarding with intention, map journeys with context, and document so no one’s left guessing. Design, to me, isn’t a buzzword or a trend. It’s a tool for clarity, for impact, for building something that works when nobody’s watching. From poster design to product thinking — it’s all part of the same system. Just better fonts now.
Every line, a story; every interface, an experience.
