I believe that the power of design is the ability to bring joy and delight to the world: a seamless experience, turning the mundane into something special, or simply serving a need in a thoughtful way.
Currently a Strategic Design Master's student at Illinois Tech institute of Design.
I believe that the power of design is the ability to bring joy and delight to the world: a seamless experience, turning the mundane into something special, an unexpected pleasant surprise, or simply serving a need.
I am also equally passionate about getting ideas up and running through implementation, since that's when impact happens! Welcome to my portfolio - stay as long as you'd like :)
I explore great ideas and bring them to life through a blend of design, research, and strategy.
