Projects

A collection of personal and professional projects that span product, service, and experience design. At the heart of my work is a drive to understand people, explore context, and design ways to engage, discover, learn, or act—across mediums and scales. Whether it’s crafting digital tools, reimagining systems, or experimenting with materials, I design with purpose and curiosity.
