About

Organically drawn towards expanding my understanding of humanity, my creative best shows when crafting something for others.
​
My goal is to help people engage with reality instead of escaping it, by designing to empower experiences.
​
Human Centered Design has equipped me to hone my craft : To design products, services and systems that democratises resources via principles of accessibility and seamlessness.
​
In addition, I am a stickler for process and planning methodology is my playground. This is what makes Experience Design and Research my forte.
The portfolio on this website aims to communicate these words through my work.
