Currently a sophomore student at the Singapore Institute of Technology, pursuing a degree in User Experience & Game Design. I enjoy turning ideas into visuals across media platforms, and I’m passionate about upcycling across industries through creative campaigns. My previous background in business helps me contribute from planning to execution on upcoming campaigns, while still keeping a strong creative outlet that explores short-form storytelling and illustration, all while understanding how real-world algorithms influence engagement. I love collaborating with brands and communities to deliver compelling visuals and content, and I’m eager to refine my skills in photography, videography, and web design to drive meaningful impact.
