Notable Work

In my spare time, I'm usually drawing something from the depths of my camera roll πŸ“Έ, recipe experimenting πŸ‘©β€πŸ³, or trying to mess around with a Notion template πŸ“„.

Some of my favorite types of projects are concept projects where I redesign existing products and putting a spin on the user experience, and ultimately just building things that look cool 🎨πŸͺ„
