Summary

Design lover. I am passionate about it and see ways to use it in almost every facet in life.

Firm but sensible. I know what I know, and I know I don't know everything; my ego can roll with the punches.

An individual that plays well with others. From time to time it is necessary to work alone, but some projects or tasks require the stunning results only team work can produce.

Not easily satisfied. For designers there's no such thing as "perfect", but deadlines are meant to push your work pretty close to that.

Information junkie. Working on something without information just feels like going to bed without brushing my teeth.
