ABOUT
I believe that a great design, in products and services, meets the needs of both the customer and the business. A great design focuses on the essentials in processes; it eliminates the unnecessary waste of resources by understanding people. Brands, services and products are built through dialogues that genuinely centre on solving the customer problem: “what are the true needs in the market?”
I’m a tireless seeker of knowledge, learner and occasional explorer – a generalist. Coincidentally, I’ve specialized in product design with a budding strategist and UX/UI design skills. This means my weapon of choice are Photoshop and Illustrator, but I’m a fast adaptor when it comes to software.
I say “YES” to new opportunities (whether it is in my current skill set or not).
