about me
I’m a designer with 14 years of experience spanning visual design, digital products, and web development.
I began my career in advertising and art direction, where I built a strong foundation in visual craft, communication, and brand thinking while working with global companies such as Johnson & Johnson, AkzoNobel, and NSG.
Over time, my growing interest in technology and problem-solving led me from designing for brands to designing and building for the web.
Today, I work across the full product lifecycle — from discovery and interaction design to rapid prototyping and implementation — with a particular interest in AI, emerging interfaces, and the intersection of design and engineering.
Let’s turn the next idea into a working product.
Let's explore it.
