I've always been comfortable figuring things out as I go. From business and marketing to software development, hackathons and product design, most of what I know today started with not knowing how to do something and deciding to learn it.
It started with curiosity.
I studied Business Administration & Marketing because I've always been fascinated by businesses, human behaviour and the relationship between the two. I liked understanding why people make decisions and how products can create value for both people and businesses.
Technology had always interested me too. I first discovered it through Scratch at a summer camp, and years later I started studying software development at 42 alongside university.
Then I started building.
42 taught me that I didn't need to wait for someone to teach me something. I could find the answer, experiment, fail, try again and eventually figure it out.
That mindset led me to hackathons. Over the past three years, I've built products with new teams, tight deadlines and very little time. Somewhere along the way, I started designing too.
That's how I learned design.
I didn't start with a plan to become a Product Designer. I learnt by building: understanding users, shaping ideas, designing interfaces and working alongside developers to turn an idea into something real.
That's still how I like to work today. I'm interested in the whole picture — what people need, what the business is trying to achieve, and what technology makes possible.
When I'm not designing.
You'll find me building, lifting heavy things or jumping over a rope repeatedly.
...also cooking, playing Pokémon, getting lost in cozy games, and spending far too much time with my dog Maya.
Still figuring things out.
And building along the way.
