I am a digital designer with a diverse background in industrial design and visual design. I create product concepts, visual assets, and digital experience. I approach each project with a hands-on mindset and keen attention to detail. Years experience in industrial design gives me a good understanding of how innovation can be done within existing constraints. It helps my collaboration with users and work together with developers to create aesthetic and user-friendly solutions.
