About

Growing up in the downtown core of Toronto, I was surrounded by a diverse community rooted in authentic expression, as seen in how neighbours cooked traditional dishes, wore their identities through colours, patterns, and clothing, and even added a little flavour to their speech, including my own family.

 

These experiences gave me a worldly perspective at a young age, supported by my father’s encouragement to explore the vibrant events happening across the city.

​

Feeling intrigued and inspired by my surroundings, I began exploring print and digital photography early on, which soon evolved into a fascination with design. Through experimentation with digital tools, I discovered how visuals could tell human stories beyond a single frame.

​

Today, with a Bachelor of Design (Honours) in User Experience Design, I continue blending creativity with strategy, designing for meaningful, human-centred experiences across digital and in-person touchpoints.

Design became my way
of understanding people,
their stories, their world,
and their needs.
