With King Charles in London

I had the privilege of representing the National Institute of Design at a special event in London (March 25), where I met King Charles & had a short discussion on world sustainability.

Who am I?

By nature, a Poet;

By passion, a Designer!

With the heart of a poet and the mind of a designer, I focus on crafting clean, user-friendly designs informed by my in-depth design background.

My north star is to design thoughtful, frictionless experiences that solve real user problems with simplicity.

What am I working on right now?

As a UX designer at HILTI, I’ve worked on various projects, including AI-powered smart search, notification redesign, and more, for ON!Track (asset management tool). While I can’t share them publicly due to confidentiality, I’d be happy to discuss selected highlights during an interview.

Until then, enjoy my fictional projects below!

What do I bring to the table?

A fresh perspective, shaped by my extensive design journey
