My Journey

My journey started in design, where I created bold brand identities and graphic systems for startups and businesses. Over time, my curiosity led me into software engineering, learning how to transform concepts into real products through code. Today, I combine these skills to craft intuitive applications, striking visuals, and meaningful digital experiences.

Living with aphantasia, a rare condition where I cannot visualize images in my mind, has deeply shaped my creative approach. Instead of “seeing” ideas, I build them through logic, structure, and storytelling — translating concepts into tangible designs, interfaces, and systems. This perspective allows me to approach problems differently, often uncovering solutions others might overlook. Beyond development and design, I bring years of customer service expertise, where I learned the art of listening, empathy, and problem resolution. These skills continue to guide my work, ensuring that every solution I build is not only technically sound but also user-centered and emotionally intuitive.
