Behind the Scenes
In Their Words
About Me
I didn't begin my career designing products. I began by bringing ideas to life through animation, illustration, and motion graphics. Spending years thinking about movement taught me something that still shapes the way I design today: every interaction tells a story, and the smallest details can completely change how someone experiences a product.
As my curiosity grew, so did my focus. I became less interested in making interfaces look good and more interested in understanding why they worked, where users struggled, and how thoughtful design could make even the most complex workflows feel simple.
Over the last six years, I've worked across product design, UX, UI, branding, illustration, and motion, designing everything from enterprise platforms and logistics systems to products built for neurodiverse users. Whether I'm mapping user journeys, building scalable design systems, shaping a brand identity, or adding a subtle animation that makes an interaction feel just right, my goal is always the same: create experiences that feel intuitive, purposeful, and genuinely enjoyable to use. More recently, I've embraced AI as part of my design process, not as a replacement for creativity, but as a tool that helps me explore ideas faster, prototype more freely, and spend more time solving meaningful problems.
Outside of client work, I'm usually experimenting. Sometimes it's an illustration series, sometimes a motion study, sometimes an idea that starts as a late-night sketch and grows into a side project. Those experiments continually shape the way I think about products.
I believe great design doesn't draw attention to itself. It removes friction, builds trust, and occasionally surprises people with moments of delight they didn't know they needed.
Journey
Couldn't explain why. Just had to.
2014
Figured out layers. Thought that made me a designer. It did not.
2019
Picked up a tablet and Procreate. Drew every single night. Couldn't stop. Still can't.
2020
Stumbled into Figma during lockdown. Realised design was just illustration with constraints. Fell in love immediately.
2021
Joined a startup as their first product designer. Built design systems, conducted user research, shipped fast. Illustrated for brands on the side, because one creative outlet was never going to be enough.
2022
Dived deep into After Effects and animation. Started bringing designs to life with micro-interactions and animated brand assets. Got a Wacom, started digital painting in Photoshop. Turns out pixels feel different when you're holding a brush.
2023–24
Launched my personal brand. Multiple freelance clients, illustration commissions, and a growing body of work I'm genuinely proud of.
2025
Picked up Procreate Dreams and finally brought illustration into motion. Explored AI tools, not as a shortcut, but as a new brush in the kit. Still human. Just faster.
Philosophy
The best ideas rarely appear in the first draft. I start by asking questions, understanding context, and uncovering the real problem before exploring solutions.
Whether it's an enterprise workflow or a simple interaction, I focus on how people feel using a product—not just how it looks.
Animation should guide, reassure, and communicate. The best motion design isn't decoration; it's part of the experience.
I enjoy creating scalable design systems, patterns, and processes that help products grow consistently beyond a single screen or release.
The strongest solutions come from working closely with developers, stakeholders, researchers, and users. Great design is rarely a solo effort.
From AI-assisted workflows to new prototyping tools, I'm always exploring better ways to think, create, and solve problems.
