As a designer, I am fueled by the joy and surprise that my designs can bring to users. The driving force behind my work is the pursuit of conveying messages, values, and thoughts in an engaging and entertaining manner - something I consistently strive for.


As a history enthusiast, I continually endeavor to infuse historical narratives and content into my designs, always exploring new ways to creatively incorporate these stories. The challenge of blending history accurately and attractively into my designs is an aspect of my work that I thoroughly enjoy and continually reflect upon.


It is my belief that through the amalgamation of history and design, I can create experiences that not only educate but also captivate. My aim is to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of history and culture, all the while delivering an enjoyable and thought-provoking experience.


By consistently challenging myself, I hope to continue to create works that intrigue, inspire, and delight.
