What I do?
When design challenges arise, I'm on the case! I love digging into the nitty-gritty, untangling the knots, and transforming problems into design solutions
I started loving the whole “design world” early without knowing that I was there.
From drawing on every surface to playing football and being a kind of a creative goofy in my first decades as a human being I've always been a creative person but there is no cute story about how I decided that Design is what I want to do in my life.
I have always been a practical human being, consistently seeking the easiest way to accomplish tasks (a true User Experience Expert), and genuinely dedicated to whatever I do.

What's the fun in staying still? While I absolutely adore what I do, my curiosity fuels a thirst for knowledge. You'll often find me diving into online courses, experimenting with fresh processes, and mastering new softwares or studying about AI & Data Analysis.
