A designer shaped by movement, play, and empathy.
From Basketball to Product Design
I came to the U.S. at 16 to pursue basketball, learned through discipline and teamwork, fell in love with games, and found my way into UI/UX and product design.
My Story
At 16, I moved to the United States to pursue basketball and chase a dream.
Although basketball did not become my career path, years of training taught me discipline, resilience, and how to grow through setbacks.
As I began thinking about my future, I turned to another passion that had always stayed with me: games. I became fascinated by how games create motivation, feedback, and emotion, and how thoughtful design can shape the way people interact.
That curiosity eventually led me to UI/UX design, where I could build experiences that feel clear, engaging, and meaningful.
