Illustrator & Motion Designer
 

 
My goal is simple: make things more “delicious” and make people happier. I believe good design and good food share the same language. Both can connect people. Whether across the table or across borders, sharing a good meal or a good design, needs no words. Great recipes bring out the best in its ingredients to make the meal taste better. 
 To do that, I find the right combinations, understand what people enjoy, and choose tools that fit.
I approach design the same way. I study the subject, consider the audience, and select the right elements and tools. My purpose is clear: to create design that delights, connects and leaves people feeling happy. That is the best kind of flavor.
