About

Design is my means to create intuitive experiences for users to have immersive and intentional interactions. I enjoy storytelling through designs and have a penchant for learning and a love for problem solving.

I recently graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Interaction Design. In parallel with my program, I have held several UX and Visual Design roles across in-house, agency and freelance teams.

Through these experiences I have learnt to collaborate and communicate with cross-functional teams and empathize with users while keeping in mind business goals.
