Bio
Ever since the pandemic, I believe that spaces influence how we feel as we move through them, and that people should feel a sense of belonging within them. My design process begins with an abstract concept, which steadily develops into form, materiality and spatial narratives that guide the user's experience. I am driven by curiosity and adaptability, I explore multiple approaches while refining them through design logic. This balance allows me to respond to each project's needs, creating environments that feel welcoming, intentional and engaging.
