whether it’s sketching a concept or structuring a physical product, I aim for clarity, sustainability, and long-term impact. I believe good designs are built with intent, consistency, and a deep understanding of the user journey.


01. about

01. about

Creative and meticulous Product & Industrial Designer with dual degrees from Southeast Technological University (2024 & 2025).

I bring a strong sustainability mindset and a rigorous design process—moving from ethnographic research and concept sketching through to CAD, physical prototyping, and client presentation.

Equally at home in the workshop and the studio, I possess live client experience and a passion for craft-driven, user-centered design
