WHAT DRIVES ME?

WHAT DRIVES ME?

Curiosity, a love for problem-solving and a deep desire for seamless digital experiences.

My journey began with mechanical engineering. When I was much younger, a family member, who was a mechanical engineering student at the time, usually visited the house from school; during some of his visits, he would help us fix some electrical appliances and fixtures at home. Seeing problems identified, broken down, and solved left a lasting impression on me. That curiosity and inclination to fix things ultimately led me to study mechanical engineering.


After earning my engineering degree in 2017, I was introduced to UI/UX Design. I quickly realised that digital product design offered the same core fulfilment: solving real problems; this time through thoughtful, user-centered experiences, while also allowing room for creativity. That discovery marked a turning point for me.

Since then, I have continued to grow as a designer, constantly refining my skills and exploring better ways to improve existing digital solutions. What hasn’t changed is my curiosity about users, systems, and how design can simplify complexity. As the world continues its digital trajectory, my goal is to help more people confidently adopt digital products that genuinely solve everyday challenges.

When I am not thinking about users or pushing pixels, I'm either reading a book, learning to play the guitar, binge-watching a good movie/documentary, or chasing new experiences through travel and time with friends and family.
