Why work with me

For me, illustration and design go hand in hand. One helps me explore ideas with creativity, while the other shapes them with intention. I enjoy creating work that feels thoughtful, purposeful, and true to the idea behind it.

When I'm Not Designing

I'm probably sketching, watching anime, listening to old songs, or appreciating different forms of art. I love discovering the creative process behind everything from films to photography and traditional crafts. That's where many of my ideas begin.
