    Expertise

    AI-Driven Workflow

    I am inspired by the rapid evolution of AI tools and actively integrate them into my creative process. By staying at the forefront of AI-assisted design, I enhance my productivity and find new ways to solve complex visual problems. I view AI as a powerful collaborator that allows me to focus more on high-level strategy and creative experimentation.

    Creative Frontend & Generative Design

    I possess a deep technical understanding of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, with a particular focus on WebGL. This expertise allows me to bridge the gap between design and development, ensuring that web experiences are as functional as they are beautiful. My true passion lies in Generative Design — I love “drawing with code” to create dynamic, evolving visual systems that go beyond static layouts.

    XR design

    I am a hands-on designer with a proven track record of launched VR and AR applications. I thrive in the “wild west” of spatial computing, where I enjoy the challenge of designing for environments without established interaction patterns. My experience covers the full cycle of immersive product development: from conceptualizing complex 3D interactions to polishing user interfaces for final release. I bridge the gap between physical and digital worlds by creating intuitive, human-centered experiences in uncharted territories.

    Visual Design

    I have a strong understanding of visual design principles including color theory, composition, and typography. I strive to create visually pleasing designs that effectively communicate with the intended audience. I am always learning and looking for ways to improve my skills.

    UX Design

    With a solid background in user experience design, I have a strong understanding of user-centered design principles and the ability to create intuitive, user-friendly interfaces. I have experience in research, prototyping, and usability testing.

    Brand Identity

    I have studied brand design and have several years of experience in the field. Being focused more on interface design, I have the ability and experience to think about the usage of the brand across all media and ensure consistency and scalability.
