I'm a communication designer working at the intersection of research, system thinking, and emerging technologies. My practice is less about styling and more a tool for me to understand structures and translate them into formats that make complexity accessible.

I work conceptually and process-driven. Research, conversations, and iterative prototyping are central to how I like to work. Many of my projects combine physical and digital elements, moving between editorial design, visual systems, and interactive prototypes. I’m especially interested in how code and computational tools can expand my design practice.

At CIID, I want to move my communication design background further into the field of interaction design. I’m aiming to strengthen my computational skills, work hands-on with new technologies, and develop a more technical understanding of how digital systems behave. A field that particularly interests me is the connection between nature and computation and how natural processes, patterns, and behaviors can inform interactive systems, and how technology can help us sense, translate, or reinterpret natural phenomena in meaningful ways.
