designerI’ve spent the last 3.5 years diving into lighting design and applications, blending it with my background in architecture. With over 5 years of hands-on architectural design experience and another 5 years as a Graphics Designer, I’ve come to see how these fields all connect—and that’s where the fun begins.
After earning my Bachelor of Architecture from SCI-Arc in 2021, I’ve been exploring the lighting industry as an applications designer and engineer. I love working with CAD and graphic design tools to bring concepts to life, but what really drives me is seeing a project through from the first spark of an idea to the final installation. Whether it’s managing a product or leading a project, I’m all about getting into the details and making sure everything runs smoothly.
One of my proudest achievements was winning the 2023 LIT Lighting Design Award. It was such a rewarding moment, knowing my work in custom lighting design stood out on that level. On top of that, I’ve managed two LED lighting systems that earned the prestigious Design Excellence Award at Lightfair’s LFI Innovation Awards. Seeing those projects come to life—and knowing they made an impact—really motivates me to keep pushing boundaries in both design and product management.
I’m passionate about finding the perfect balance between creativity and functionality, and I’m always looking forward to the next challenge that will let me explore new possibilities in lighting and architecture.
