Bridging Tech and Design

Working as a software engineer taught me how powerful technology can be, but I often felt something was missing in my day-to-day work: the chance to bring more creativity into the process. I found that spark in human-computer interaction, where design and technology meet to shape how people actually experience products.
What excites me is not just building systems that work, but crafting interactions that feel natural, intuitive, and even delightful. Design gives me the creative outlet I was missing, while my engineering background ensures the solutions I create are both beautiful and practical.

Beyond the Screen

When I’m not deep in design or code, you’ll usually find me chasing a different kind of creativity. Sometimes that means capturing little details through my camera lens, experimenting with hand lettering, or tinkering with graphic design just for fun. These side projects let me play, explore, and keep my creative muscles flexible in ways that feel less structured than my professional work.
I’m also happiest when I’m outside—hiking a trail, exploring somewhere new, or just getting lost in a good book under the sun. For me, creativity and curiosity go hand in hand, whether it’s through design, art, or adventure. Below is a look into my personal hobbies and adventures.
