the
anatomy of a
curious designer.

a little piece
of me.

my dopamine drive? building cool stuff.

curiosity doesn’t clock out.

games, movies, music, and a good match. i’m always finding something to get into.

but few things
have my heart.

designing for real people.

i discovered UX in grade 12. finally, a way to combine design and code while making people’s everyday experiences better.

building useful things.

at 14, i dreamed of building an app that solved a real problem. now i’ve designed and built Go Transit Watch. childhood me would be pretty happy.

design and code, together.

CorelDRAW’s pen tool got me hooked on making things look and feel good. i still love taking an idea from the first curve to a working product.

Soft 3D airplane representing my childhood dream of becoming a pilot

i wanted to be a pilot.

As a kid, my dream job was in the cockpit. At 12, I found another way to make things fly: a cardboard helicopter powered by a motor from a small fan.

then i started making.

I’ve always been curious about how things work and what I could make with what I found. Building that helicopter at 12 turned inspiration into something real, and sparked a builder mindset I still carry: try, experiment, and keep figuring things out.
