I am proficient in Adobe CC applications and online collaboration tools for working remotely. I have a strong understanding of UX design from the research stage to the launch of a product as well.

Artist Statement
As a designer who has previously studied communications, I completely agree that design is the way we express and communicate our thoughts and emotions. In order to make it easier for others to understand our designs, each element should have a clear objective and intent. When I create my work, I always keep in mind that everyone, regardless of age, social status, and culture should be able to comprehend the intended message.
I am passionate about producing designs that use appropriate colors, fonts, and layouts, are simple and are straight to the point.
I conduct thorough research early in my design process to establish a solid foundation for the design concept.
In addition, I use methods like mind mapping and double diamond to explore different design directions. When communicating with my clients, I strive to be more empathetic, so that I can be the best advocate for my designs, and my clients as well.
