About 

I’ve always been deeply intrigued by the synergy between design and the application of software to transform creative visions into reality. Throughout my academic journey and professional experience, I have honed my creative thinking, heightened my workflow awareness, and learned much in technical aspects of design and 3D modeling, in my passion of a harmonious fusion of artistic expression and technical precision.
