Inspired by Spotify's Limelight series featuring incredible designers like Kavita Chepovetsky, I decided to create my own take—an introspective spotlight showcasing my journey, passions, and inspirations as a designer engineer.
Am I a designer?
For me, design is more than a profession; it’s a way of seeing and engaging with the world. Art is always around us, waiting to be noticed. To be a designer means embracing that awareness and finding inspiration in the simplest of things. It’s about trusting your instincts and allowing curiosity to guide your creative choices. At its core, design is about transformation—it’s the power to take what’s familiar, like an apple or a banana, and turn it into a universal language, a story that speaks to everyone. This mindset shapes who I am, both as a designer and an engineer, and as a person, reminding me that I am all I decide to be and that every creation begins with a choice to see differently.
Every creation begins with a choice to see differently.

How about Enginner?
Every creation begins with a choice to see differently. This mindset is the foundation of my approach not just as a designer, but also as an engineer. My mind is naturally drawn to the endless possibilities offered by the power of choice.
With that curiosity as my compass, I was drawn to engineering—a discipline that captivates me with its ability to combine structured patterns with creative innovation.
In engineering, I find a balance between logic and imagination, blending the analytical and artistic sides of my mind. It’s a space where creativity meets precision, and where ideas are transformed into tangible solutions.

User Centered Designer?
At the heart of every product lies its most important element: the user. You can create a beautifully designed product, engineer it with precision, and market it well, but if the user doesn’t connect with it, the product will fail. As a user-centered designer with experience in the entire product lifecycle—from idea to execution—I focus on creating meaningful experiences that prioritize the user’s needs.
Today, more than ever, we understand the value of user-focused design. I’d be happy to help your company explore this approach, leveraging my expertise to ensure your products not only succeed but truly resonate with your audience.

Who would be my dream person to collaborate with and what would we make together?
Meredith Ringel Morris, a principal scientist and director at Google DeepMind, has been a driving force in the fields of human-computer interaction and AI. Her research emphasizes accessible technologies and human-centered AI, focusing on creating systems that are inclusive and address diverse user needs.
I chose Meredith as a source of inspiration because our minds align in ideas. I would love the opportunity to collaborate with her or explore new perspectives together, pushing the boundaries of what AI can achieve for everyone.

What's one piece of wisdom I would give to my younger self?
The most important thing in life is to learn. And a crucial part of that learning is understanding the power of today.
Yesterday exists to reflect and evaluate, offering lessons to carry forward. Tomorrow is a canvas for plans and aspirations. But it’s today—this very moment—that holds the power to create change.
Make your today a happy day!

What are you excited about right now?
I’m so excited to be part of this time, to the new renaissance—a transformative moment where imagination meets possibility, and the boundaries of what we once thought impossible are being redefined. This is a time of profound change, where technology is reshaping our world, and I feel inspired by the opportunity to witness this transformation and contribute to it in meaningful ways.
AI, in particular, excites me—not as a feared “monster,” but as a tool. With careful thought and purpose, we have the chance to shape this tool for the better of all.
Renaissance - where imagination meets possibilities.

Here my Happy place – somewhere I go to recharge my creative battery.
My happy place is the quiet streets of the suburbs where I walk every day. This daily routine is my sanctuary—a chance to recharge my creative battery and let my thoughts flow freely. The simplicity of these walks, surrounded by familiar sights and peaceful moments, helps me find inspiration in the ordinary.
As I walk, I listen to podcasts that keep me informed and inspired. Two of my favorites are "VAEXperience" for fascinating insights into technology and ux-design and "The Mad Podcast" with Matt Turck for thought-provoking discussions on innovation and AI. These podcasts fuel my curiosity and creativity, making my walks an essential part of my day.
