Working for over 15 years at digital studios has shaped me into a creative UX designer with a passion for adding meaningful motion design. I enjoy collaborating with teams, ensuring the best ideas rise to the surface, and together we navigate from complexity to structured, intuitive results.
When I'm not at my laptop, I enjoy spending time in nature, creating music and delving into science fiction stories. Ideally, I like to share these experiences with friends and family.
Originally trained as a graphic designer at HKU, I quickly transitioned to the interactive world, much like many in the field. Over the years, I've explored various disciplines with great enthusiasm, but the common thread has always been Interaction Design and Animation.

Then came 10 years at Superhero Cheesecake. From 5 to 35 people, I helped establish the company as one of the premier digital agencies worldwide.
