About
I'm a Digital Product Designer with unique creative and analytical skills. I have a research background in Human-Computer Interaction.
With 10 years of design experience, I specialize in product design, data management, advertising, multimedia, and AI/machine learning, encompassing the entire product development process.
As an orchestral flutist for 20 years, I leverage my musical background to initiate and organize effectively, connecting user experience with music activities. 3 years of commercial photography I further enhanced my observational skills. Having lived in 9 countries, I'm culturally adept and multilingual (🇭🇰🇮🇪🇬🇧🇳🇿🇩🇪🇩🇰🇳🇴🇫🇷🇯🇵), shaping me into an empathetic UX designer and researcher.
