I practice creative technology through a design lens and believe that design should serve a purpose beyond just creating functional and accessible work. I believe that itis about establishing a connection with audiences through expression. I thrive when seeking out opportunities to explore new ideas and experimenting with various mediums, bridging the gap between traditional design and computation. My versatile skill set enables me to work across various disciplines, tackling real-world challenges and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams.
As a passionate advocate for design education, I am dedicated to sharing my knowledge and helping other creatives develop new skills. With a commitment to constantly evolve and grow, I aim to foster a future-focused mindset, unlocking the potential at the intersection of design and technology.
