About Me

Multidisciplinary designer focused on web design & development.

My passion is to build projects that solve problems and tell stories. Design is not only for looks, it's a tool with a purpose and using it to its fullest potential is what I strive for.

In my free time you can find me making illustrations, rock climbing and dancing to 80's music.

Good design is like a refrigerator — when it works, no one notices, but when it doesn’t, it sure stinks.
— Irene Au
