WHAT I THINK I DO.

Design Juggler Extraordinaire

I juggle Experience, Graphic, and Motion Design with the flair of a circus performer, crafting interfaces that resonate, visuals that captivate, and animations that engage (yeet). On the sidelines, I explore the realms of front-end development, threading HTML, CSS, and various JS frameworks into my creations, marrying functionality with artistry. I revel in the blend of business, pleasure, and a dash of code.

WHAT I LIKE TO DO.

Sketches, Paws, and Pot Twists

My life stars a husband and a senior dog-son, who aren’t surprised when I’m glued to binge-worthy sagas including dramas, animes, novels and obscure knowledge troves. They’ve observed my dubious talent for turning lush plants into lifeless decor—except for a Potos plant that’s surprisingly thriving, making it the unsung hero in my tale of botanical misadventures.

WHAT I WANT TO DO.

A Heart for the Earth and Its Inhabitants

Navigating the jungle of life with a sketchpad in one hand and a leash in the other, I’m on a mission to prove design isn’t just about making things pretty—it’s about tackling the beastly problems of our world. With a heart for every creature and a head filled with green dreams, I aspire to merge creativity with compassion, one design at a time.

HOW I PLAN TO DO WHAT I WANT TO DO.

A (lil) Mad Scientist of Design & Tech

‘Experiment, learn, repeat’—with inevitable chaos. Relentlessly pursuing knowledge, I’ve become a jack-of-all-trades, mastering some (work-in-progress). I’m on the journey to collect bizzare, wonderful tech and design experiences. Drawing inspiration everywhere, I navigate the creative sphere, forever curious, forever (over)sharing, and evolving. Thankfully, curiosity hasn’t killed this cat and the people around her. (yet)
