Over the past 4 years, I have designed both digital experiences and print publications. I specialize in iOS and responsive web design.

I believe it's all about teamwork. The product is only as good as the team. I always want to collaborate in any way to push the product forward. 

 

 

About

As an autodidact, I am always learning and trying to improve my skills. This is my biggest source of motivation and drive.

As a designer, I am always on the hunt for opportunities to collaborate and solve problems.

When I am not working, I enjoy playing soccer. I switch between two positions: Center Forward & Left Midfielder.
