About

Product designer and creative technologist working at the intersection of design, engineering, and AI. With a background in architecture, I bring a spatial and systems-based perspective to immersive technology. I prototype tools, interfaces, and experiences that blend the virtual and physical worlds. My work explores how AI can expand creativity and reshape how we interact with space, technology, and each other.
