Lifelong
Learner

Over the past 10 years, I have invested heavily in continuous learning. Starting with basic courses on design software, I progressively deepened my skills in layouts, typography, color theory, iconography, and design systems.



Along the way, I worked with several design mentors and gained insight into the workflows of dozens of professionals. I have always prioritized mastering real-world skills over simply collecting certificates.
