The Journey Behind
My Design Approach

My path to design started as a kid with sketchbooks and Lego, moved through poster design, and evolved into a passion for digital design. Because I’ve always loved bringing ideas to life, I went a step further and developed the skills to build what I designed. That dual skillset became my strength, ensuring ideas are carried through without compromise.

At Kurtosys, my mentor Tim helped me refine my development skills while design remained my focus. Since then, I’ve worked on platforms for Generali and JP Morgan, as well as electric vehicle experiences for Jaguar Land Rover. In every project, my role has been to craft clear, user-centered solutions that balance aesthetics with usability.

Today, I’m the founder of Projiro, a digital design studio focused on financial products. My current work centers on developing a system design approach that helps startups and fintech companies ship faster and with greater consistency. It’s the framework I’m building in the background, shaping how Projiro supports teams in turning ideas into scalable, production-ready products.

The Thought Beneath

 Traveling shapes how i design. Every new place, every conversation, every observation adds to my understanding of how people interact with the world around them. Because the best designers aren't just students of design, they're students of humanity.
