I’m a UX/UI designer with a foundation in luxury fashion, menswear consulting, and private education. My background blends design and sales with a deep understanding of what makes people feel seen, valued, and engaged—whether online or in person.
My creative journey began with JYAN Denim, my bespoke selvedge denim brand, where I crafted custom pieces for clients across North America and Europe. That experience taught me the essence of precision, storytelling, and emotional connection—values I now bring to every interface I design.
I've also served as a menswear consultant and lead instructor, guiding thousands of individuals with empathy, clarity, and trust.
Today, I specialize in designing digital and physical experiences that reflect the same intentionality and elegance—where every detail is purposeful, and every interaction feels seamless. Whether it’s a high-end e-commerce site, a brick-and-mortar retail experience, a wellness service, or a lifestyle brand, my goal is to elevate usability without compromising beauty or brand integrity.
Let’s create refined, human-centered digital experiences that people can truly enjoy.
