DESIGN
& ILLUSTRATION
or creating in general, I often tell this tale about how initially, postcards were the inception of my love for design. Traveling around the country with my family and picking up postcards with beautiful designs, illustrations, and layouts, opened my eyes to countless stories and experiences that shaped me into the creative person I am. Not only was it those postcards but it was seeing the immense wonders of the earth. Whether it be marveling at rivers carving through canyons or admiring trees clinging to mountainsides, nature's beauty and travel became a huge inspiration for me.
These adventures weren't just about sightseeing though; they became a part of how I see the world and approach design. I found myself constantly drawing connections between the natural world's beauty and the artistry of design.
WHEN IT COMES TO DESIGN,
It isn't just about making things look good—it's about capturing the essence of stories and experiences that have a deep impact on us. It's an ongoing journey of exploring how the richness of our world can be reflected in meaningful and relatable designs
PHOTO
Taking a photograph isn't just a technical process; it's a way for me to connect with my surroundings and appreciate the beauty that surrounds us every day. In essence, photography is my way of slowing down, finding peace in the present, and capturing moments that inspire me. It's a simple joy that brings clarity and mindfulness to my everyday life.
PHOTOGRAPHY ISNT JUST A HOBBY FOR ME,
It's an incredibly calming and meditative state for the brain. When I pick up my camera, it's like entering a peaceful retreat where I can tune out distractions and focus solely on what's in front of me.
What started out as taking pictures of the large popular LEGO toy, I grew to find love in being Behind the lens. Whether I'm capturing the energy of a bustling city or the tranquility of a natural landscape, photography helps me see the world with a new perspective. It's not just about snapping pictures either; it's about noticing the small details—the way light falls on a subject, the expressions on people's faces, or the subtle movements of nature.

MY ULTIMATE ASPIRATION IN LIFE,
Is to fulfill my dream of becoming a film director. Having acquired substantial knowledge in design and photography, I now want to make that motion into filmmaking, whether in narrative storytelling, documentary production, or short-form content creation.
Being a graphic designer, I've honed my ability to communicate visually, understand composition and color theory, and craft narratives through imagery. These skills are invaluable when conceptualizing scenes, designing sets, and creating visuals on screen. Similarly, my experience in photography has taught me how to capture moments, manipulate light, and evoke emotions through visual means—all of which are essential in cinematography and directing.
For someone who views it through the lenses of design and photography, film-making, transcends boundaries of language and culture, offering a universal platform to share diverse perspectives, provoke empathy, and ignite meaningful conversations. As a filmmaker who deeply understands the power of visual communication, I believe in the transformative impact of storytelling through moving images.
7-year-old me, when asked the question “What do you want to be when you grow up”, answered with a simple phrase:
“I wanna be a movie maker”.
Since that pivotal moment, I have created a clear vision of my professional ambitions. I aspire to embody creativity as a designer, consistently crafting visual stories that resonate through photography, illustrations, design, or filmmaking.
The simple act of bringing ideas to life through various forms of expression is where my true calling resides.
