I’m a UX/UI Designer with over 8 years of continuous, hands-on experience working in client-facing design environments. My career began in a design firm and later evolved through my work at Staples, where I collaborated daily with real clients to deliver both physical and digital design solutions under real business constraints.
Starting as a graphic designer, I’ve developed a wide range of deliverables — including logos, brand identities, books, magazines, marketing materials, digital campaigns, and websites. This foundation trained me to think clearly about information hierarchy, clarity, and communication, not just visual style.
As my projects became more complex, my focus naturally shifted from “how things look” to how people understand, use, and move through information. Through constant client interaction, I began researching practical user problems, identifying friction points, and designing solutions that reduced confusion, errors, and unnecessary back-and-forth.
Today, I focus on UX/UI design, where I combine my visual background with business awareness and user-centered thinking. I design experiences that are not only visually refined, but also intuitive, practical, and grounded in how users actually behave.
If you’re looking for a designer who understands real users, real constraints, and real outcomes, you’re in the right place.
