About

Once upon a time, there was a kid who loved doodling. That kid was me. As I grew up, my doodles turned into designs, and my passion for art led me to become a designer. What skills do I bring to the table? I have worked for 8+ years in the design industry and have managed over 400 projects. The teams I led consisted of more than 50 employees. I chose to use Agile methods in my projects, to craft and polish designs, learn from each iteration, and ensure timely delivery. I highly value the trust placed in me when entrusted with a project, and I consistently give 200% to ensure its success. Finally, I thrive in a team environment, am always learning new skills to upgrade myself and leverage my past skills to make better design decisions.
