I’m a curious person by nature. In fact, the first word I ever said wasn’t really a word at all. It was “What’s that?” Looking back, I think that question still defines both who I am and how I approach design.

I’m usually the first person into a room and the last one to leave. While caffeine has definitely helped along the way, what truly drives me is a combination of stubbornness and perfectionism. Those traits are often seen as negatives, but when paired with empathy, curiosity, and openness, I believe they become a superpower. They push me to dig deeper, refine ideas further, and create work that is thoughtful, intentional, and human-centered.
