Behind the Work

My design journey began with personal projects in 2005 and evolved through collaborations with renowned agencies and a global startup experience enriching my path. I believe the most effective solutions emerge at the intersection of creativity, functionality, and empathy — and that’s exactly where I love to create.

From mentoring young designers within the teams I’ve worked with to serving as a jury member in international competitions, I’m committed to supporting the creative community while continuously pushing boundaries through my own work.
