About

Throughout my academic and professional journey, I've consistently demonstrated an engaged and conceptual approach to my work. I easily adapt to the demands of my roles, whether it's designing websites, developing brand identities, being a mentor, or contributing to brainstorming sessions, I’m driven by the endless possibilities that creative work offers.

My method is grounded in thorough research and careful analysis of project strategies, laying the foundation for innovative and impactful solutions that consistently meet and exceed client goals.

As part of my design journey, I've also engaged in nonprofit work, such as rebranding a local community centre, and co-founding a grassroots organization to connect student designers with small businesses. I'm also a current mentor for the Humber College Graphic Design program, reviewing portfolios and providing career advice for up-and-coming designers.

In addition to my professional pursuits, I find fulfillment and inspiration through various physical arts: drawing, bookbinding, sewing, knitting, crochet, film photography, ceramics, and painting. I also enjoy outdoor excursions and immersing myself in nature.
