My passion for design began at the age of seven when I was captivated by the colors and digital interfaces of MS Paint in my mother’s office. This early fascination led me to pursue an undergraduate degree in Computer Science, where my interest in design reignited while creating posters for a college fest during my sophomore year. That experience deepened my curiosity for graphic design and ultimately guided me to the MGXD program at North Carolina State University, where I continue to explore the intersection of technology and design.
