I used to think I needed a perfect aesthetic before I could call myself an artist, but over time I realized my strength is that I am still learning and evolving. I design by digging deeper, asking questions, understanding intention, and looking for the story before the visuals. Storytelling drives everything I create, and I try to make work that feels personal, thoughtful, and connected. I am still discovering who I am as a designer, but that curiosity is what pushes me forward and shapes the voice I am building.
