I have an eye for detail and a curiosity about how things are constructed, both in a physical and digital space. Merging my background in interior design and architecture, I deliver thorough and practical design solutions to clients.
As a curious creative and critical thinker, I love to explore the world around me, understand how things work, and brainstorm ways to improve people's lives through innovation and creative problem-solving.
