about me

I found my love for design through my mother who was an interior designer by passion and my love for building things from my father who was a successful entrepreneur. I first fell in love with making my own clothing which took me into the world of graphic design when I wanted to learn how to create my own fabrics and patterns. This opened myself to the possibilities of all types of design when I then learned UI & UX design. I always felt a barrier between what I could create visually and what I could build technically, and this is why I learned how to code.
