As a creative thinker, I am obsessed about using empathy and design thinking to solve meaningful problems. My motivation lies in helping individuals and businesses reaching their optimal potential. I believe that the power to create an impact lies in deep empathy and collaboration.
From a very young age, I was the quiet kid in the corner who dreamt of growing up to be a detective and saving the world with crayons and papers. My left brain’s fondness for critical thinking and human psychology led me to begin a career in criminal law. After the twists and turns of life in law and banking, my adventurous soul and creative calling landed me 7,500 km away from home to become a graphic designer then later a UXer.
I have a keen eye for beautiful designs and take pride in seeing my work manifest into intuitive user applications. I have collaborative experience from working with cross-functional teams as well as managing projects autonomously from start to finish.
I also love the ‘aha’ moments of deciphering mysteries and learning more about behavioral psychology discoveries. When I am not busy putting my detective hat on and solving problems, I listen to Freakonomics radio, organise events and experiment with fermentation.
