Designing Delightful Experiences:
I’m Your UX/UI Partner

My artistic journey has been quite a ride. From winning a cartooning contest as a kid, I've been fueled by creativity ever since.

After diving into an arts major in college, I kicked off as a graphic designer at a local startup BPO in 2014. Soon, I took my skills freelance, working with clients across the USA, Canada, and Australia in various industries, each with its own story to tell.

My thing? Crafting impactful branding and polished UI designs. Around 2018, I got hooked on designing digital experiences—websites, mobile apps—using tools like Adobe XD and Figma.

Driven by curiosity, I dived into UX. No fancy titles, just a genuine desire to create designs that make practical sense. Fast forward, and I'm now fully immersed as a UX/UI designer, weaving together creativity and a greater purpose.

Beyond work, you'll find me painting, doing arts and crafts, traveling, or simply enjoying a good movie at home.

Eager to learn and innovate, I'm thrilled to have you along for the ride. Let's chat or collaborate and create some awesome experiences together.
