The story

Being a designer is my choice. My journey started as a B.com graduate who always thinks about colors, typography, and toolbar rather than debit & credit. It all started with my very first illustration of my bike back in 2016 then to now as a product designer there is a lot to share. Outside the design world, I love to play badminton, ride, eat, and hangout and that's me in short!
