About

I'm a creative director and multidisciplinary designer working at the intersection of technology, culture, and narrative. Until recently, I spent over 7 years at Microsoft working across mixed reality, AI-driven creative tools, and large-scale product design. I’ve now stepped away to focus fully on independent work. I currently co-run Xequalto, a multidisciplinary design studio working across digital heritage, spatial storytelling, digital product, and experimental design. Alongside this, I explore film and narrative projects through collaborative work.
