What I'm looking for

I’m particularly drawn to companies that value innovation, encourage fresh ideas, and provide opportunities for professional growth. Whether leading digital transformation, developing cutting-edge platforms, or enhancing brand experiences, I want to contribute my skills to a company that shares my vision for digital excellence.

I’m a creative and results-driven business owner with extensive experience in front-end development, graphic design, UI/UX, and digital innovation. With a background in licensing, branding, and digital strategy, I’ve worked with major global brands like Warner Bros, Cartoon Network, and Hasbro Studios. I thrive on leveraging technology to enhance business operations, create cutting-edge digital experiences, and drive user engagement. Passionate about innovation and entrepreneurship, I’m always looking to push the boundaries of design and development while building successful ventures that merge creativity with technology.
