Profile
I’m an aspiring product designer from Maryland with a deep curiosity for how everyday objects and systems work.
I love the process of turning ideas into functional, well-crafted products and finding elegant solutions to complex problems.
My work is driven by hands-on experimentation and a passion for understanding how things are made.
Through design, I aim to improve people's experiences and create meaningful, positive change in the world.
