Growing up, I was surrounded by my mom and dad's DIY projects - we spent weekends in hardware stores and lumber yards. My family's knack for design and innovation fueled my creativity and curiosity from a young age.

Studying fine art and graphic design in university felt like a natural progression, paving the way for an unexpected journey into the world of furniture design right after graduation. This role taught me the importance of empathy and curiosity in design. From understanding clients' needs to crafting detailed designs, I learned to empathize with end users and understand the impact of my design decisions.

Becoming a furniture designer sparked a journey of continuous learning, leading me to delve into academia in Italy. There, I explored art history, printmaking, and graphic design, deepening my understanding of old subjects and new cultures. This experience guided me towards language instruction and teacher training across six countries, where I refined my skills in crafting content for language acquisition.

Transitioning into product design marked a pivotal moment in my career, shaping my ethos around continuous learning, embracing feedback, and crafting designs with a meaningful impact. I believe that growth and improvement are ongoing journeys, and I actively seek out opportunities to expand my knowledge and skills. I believe that feedback is a gift, whether positive or constructive, and is invaluable in guiding any creative process. Ultimately, my goal is to create designs that not only solve problems but also make a positive difference in people's lives, enhancing their experiences and fostering meaningful connections.

When I'm not at my desk, I love running through scenic trails or practicing yoga. Beyond physical activities, witnessing the growth and development of my son fills me with boundless joy and wonder. These moments remind me of the importance of balance, grounding me in the present and enriching my life with simple yet profound experiences.
