I got my first iPhone at nine, I did what any kid would do: opened the camera. Except I never really stopped. I took pictures of everything I found interesting, from strange shadows and reflections to, for some reason, a lot of electric poles. I’d move around, try different angles, and frame things until they looked right.

I didn’t know it at the time, but I was teaching myself how to look. Today, that same curiosity shapes my design work: noticing unexpected compositions, shifting perspective, and finding something interesting in an ordinary scene.

Apparently, I've been a designer since nine. I just didn't know it yet.
