I’m a designer and creative thinker drawn to bold visuals, thoughtful storytelling, and work that leaves an impression.
Beyond design, I’m an animal lover, antique collector, and new wave enthusiast. I pull inspiration from old objects, album covers, and strange details.
I’m interested in creating work that feels intentional, expressive, and is grounded in logic.
