Hello, I'm a multidisciplinary visual designer passionate about creating impactful, visually compelling experiences. I'm happiest building thoughtful systems, crafting images, and shaping interactive prototypes—component-driven UI, clear flows, and motion that supports the story. I prioritize doing it right over doing it fast, iterating until the solution is clear, durable, and production-ready. Outside of design, I mostly think about food and my two dogs, Luna and Max.
