I am a multidisciplinary designer with over a decade of experience spanning textiles, graphic design, and production management. I love turning creative ideas into tangible products and collaborating with brands and cross-functional teams to deliver thoughtful, high-quality work.
Currently I teach digital arts, work as a freelance designer, and lead design projects for a diverse client base. I thrive on color, texture, and the intersection of art and practical production.
