My object in living is to unite My avocation and my vocation As my two eyes make one in sight. Only where love and need are one, And the work is play for mortal stakes, Is the deed ever really done For heaven and the future’s sakes. - Robert Frost -

I strive to blend passion with profession, making my work deeply fulfilling. This philosophy is beautifully captured in the words of Robert Frost, which I find particularly resonant.

In my work, I bridge the gap between concept and reality by crafting and coding intuitive interfaces in collaborative multidisciplinary teams.

With a hands-on approach, I take products from their initial conception through to completion, ensuring each step reflects the intended message and enhances user interaction. Skilled in transforming user feedback into tangible, deliverable user experience enhancements. With a foundation in both game UI Design and Civil and Environmental Engineering, I've honed the ability to meld creativity with the disciplined logic characteristic of the engineering. This unique blend powers my approach as a Technical UI Designer.
