My mom tells me that the mole at the bottom of my foot is a sign of my destiny. That I’d always be in search of somewhere (something) new. Being left-handed, means that I’d be naturally drawn to being in service of creativity. The combination is like good soup.
I spend a lot of time learning from the eclectic experiences from the stories of the people I meet and the people they knew. I carefully stew all of the amazing things they’ve seen over time. Delicious ingredients. Just as they’ve shaped me, I spend a lot of time figuring out how to mold designs — beautiful, intuitive, and creatively thoughtful visual languages — that make others feel as good as the world we build is bold.
I’m most inspired by games and fictional realities. From cozy simulations and puzzles, to intricate lore and world-building fantasies. I like to experiment with how we can merge the surreal and cool, with the utilitarian and logic to entertain how enjoyable systematic solutions can be made real and memorable. There’s no love quite like when things linger like a peppercorn adoring your taste buds.
My favorite color, is blue.
