The First Time Design Spoke to Me

I didn’t find design. It found me.

​

I was the kid rearranging the cereal boxes on the kitchen table because the logos looked better balanced that way. I didn’t have the language for it then, but I understood intuitively that visuals had power; they could guide, emphasize, or distract. As I got older, I realized that the pull I felt wasn’t about making things “pretty.” It was about making things work. Making ideas understood.

​

The first time I opened Adobe InDesign, it felt like learning a language I already knew. My creative journey has always been about communication; using type, color, image, and space to help people feel something or understand something more clearly. My career began with logos and flyers, but even then, I knew I was designing more than graphics. I was designing clarity.

​

Design, to me, is empathy in visual form. And that’s why I’ve stayed on this path, it keeps me connected to people’s stories, needs, and the pulse of the world around me.
