Bio

I’m a UI/UX designer with a background in quantity surveying, which means I’ve always been drawn to structure and problem-solving. My journey into design started with curiosity and turned into a career where I help businesses create intuitive digital experiences. Outside of design, I’m an entrepreneur—I run a handmade footwear brand where I get to merge creativity with craftsmanship. Lately, I’ve been exploring fintech and digital storytelling, diving into how technology shapes the way we interact with the world.

I'm passionate about

• Creating designs that make digital experiences seamless and intuitive. • Helping people break into UI/UX and navigate imposter syndrome. • Exploring how fintech is changing asset management and investments. • Building brands that merge creativity

An idea worth spreading

Design isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about shaping how people think, feel, and act. The way we design digital experiences can influence decisions, improve accessibility, and even change behaviors. I want to share how intentional design can make technology more human.

Areas of expertise

Design Thinking, Digital Product Design, Digital Storytelling, Entrepreneurship, UI/UX Design

The TED story

I’ve always been fascinated by how design influences the way we interact with the world—whether it’s a digital product, a brand, or even something as simple as a well-crafted pair of shoes. My journey into UI/UX started with curiosity and turned into a career where I get to create meaningful user experiences. As an entrepreneur, I understand the balance between creativity and business, and as someone who’s always learning, I want to share insights on how design can solve real problems and shape the future.
