I started my career as a graphic designer in 2019. My main tasks were creating designs for social media and print. During this time, I learned to use tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, GIMP, and Inkscape. In 2020, I got into UI/UX design because there was a growing demand for it. I began handling UI/UX projects, and by 2021, I officially became a UI/UX Designer.

Over the years, I’ve worked hard to grow in this field. I’ve learned through bootcamps, books, and mentorship from experienced designers. I love every step of the design process, from research and problem-solving to creating ideas and improving them through iterations. To complete this learning journey, I’m now in the process of writing my own book to share everything I’ve learned so far and to further solidify my understanding of all that I’ve studied.

Outside of design, I have another passion: writing jokes and performing stand-up comedy. The hardest part of comedy is making sure the audience understands my story clearly—if they don’t get it, the jokes won’t work. Interestingly, I’ve found that design and comedy have a lot in common.

Storytelling in comedy has helped me present my design ideas more effectively, while the creative process behind joke writing inspires my design ideation. With all this experience, I’ve realized I don’t want to limit myself with titles like graphic designer or UX designer. I simply love creating anything related to design.

That’s why I tell people: “I do Design & Comedy.”
