About
I'm a passionate and creative Lead Web Designer with over 7 years of experience crafting beautiful, user-friendly websites and web applications.
Ever since designing my first website in high school, I've been honing my skills in UI/UX design, responsive web design, and accessible front-end development. I thrive on turning complex design challenges into intuitive digital experiences that engage users and make their lives easier.
My specialty is quickly understanding business goals and user needs in order to translate them into effective web-based solutions. I'm a strong collaborator who values communication, curiosity, and empathy throughout the design process.
