About

Every great design begins with an even better story

I'm a Creative Director and UI/UX Designer with over 15 years of experience shipping visual systems at scale. My icon work for Freepik and other stock marketplaces has been used by millions around the world. I love character illustration, stylized 2D art, and building clean mobile-first interfaces. These days, I'm focused on game creative direction: character design, world building, and game UI systems.
