ABOUT ME

timeline.png

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been a problem solver, always looking for ways to make things work better and more efficiently. At the same time, I’ve been drawn to beauty in all its forms, whether in nature, art, or everyday objects.

​

Early in my career as a mechanical engineer in the oil and gas industry, I thrived on pushing technical boundaries and creating smarter, more effective solutions. While the work was technically challenging, it didn’t offer the creative outlet I craved. With some trepidation, I left that path to pursue a master’s degree in Industrial Design Engineering in Europe, a decision that opened the door to a new way of working.

​

At my core, I love problem-solving, whether it’s untangling a complex engineering challenge or shaping a product that’s both functional and beautiful. Above all, I enjoy creating user-friendly experiences for people through thoughtfully designed consumer products.

​

I also have a passion for travel and discovery. To date, I’ve visited 57 countries, and exploring new places continually inspires how I see and design the world.
