Let's build something great together!

My creative journey started with traditional painting, but over time, my passion for storytelling led me to animation and, later, digital design. I earned my Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Integrated Media from OCAD University, where I specialized in Digital Painting and Expanded Animation.

Now, I focus on UX/UI design, where I blend creativity with functionality to craft intuitive and visually engaging digital experiences. My work spans user research, wireframing, prototyping, and motion graphics, using tools like Figma, Adobe XD, Photoshop, Toon Boom Harmony, Dragonframe, and After Effects.

As a UX/UI designer, I help brands and businesses create seamless, user-friendly interfaces that feel natural and engaging. My experience as a User Experience Specialist has also allowed me to work on improving digital service navigation, making interactions more intuitive and efficient.

At the core of everything I do is a love for design and problem-solving. Whether it’s designing a product that makes someone’s life easier or bringing a story to life through animation, I’m always looking for new ways to connect with audiences and create something meaningful.
