About me
I’m passionate about designing products that make a real impact on people’s lives. Whether it’s improving everyday tools or creating seamless experiences, I thrive on solving meaningful challenges. I love working on products that matter—ones that help people connect, grow, or simplify their lives. Based in the Bay Area, I’ve worked across industries, from luxury brands to enterprise tools, always striving to blend usability with beauty. When I’m not designing, you’ll find me exploring nature, discovering new places, and constantly seeking inspiration in the world around me.
