About

I collect small moments: the shadow of power lines on the street, the way receipts curl after sitting in the sun, the hidden geometry of crowded markets. These ordinary sights become raw material for my work.

My job as a designer is to decode these moments and rebuild them into visual language that resonates. When I design, I'm drawing from this archive of small discoveries, turning everyday poetry into purposeful communication. Whether I am creating a brand identity or experimenting with typography, I am always chasing that moment of surprise where the familiar feels new again.
