Designer and creative.
I am a Northern California, Bay Area resident and graduated from San Jose State University’s B.F.A. Graphic Design program with a minor in Art history.
My creative approach is to solve a problem both in logic and imagination. Answers can be provided by data and metrics of course, but it can be expressed visually with a creative direction. I work well with fellow creative peers, project leads and developers of varying timezones. I am a team player and collaborator and often push my teammmates and juniors to share our work in client-facing engagement.
Outside of day-to-day work of visual design and UI, I am a self-taught illustrator, a fan of the japanese animation and japanese cuisine and on some weekends an artist vendor in local art/comic conventions. I am also a proud cat parent with my partner.
