Bachelor’s (BFA) in Visual Communication Design

A designer at heart and a storyteller by practice, I enjoy creating experiences that bring ideas to life through space, visuals, and human connection. With experience across graphic design, production design, installation art, and themed entertainment, I thrive at the intersection of concept development and hands-on making. Whether designing a brand, a set, or an immersive environment, I'm driven by curiosity, collaboration, and creating memorable experiences.
