People that know me would immediately be able to tell that this is about my love for Dungeons and Dragons. Truth is, I started my D&D journey around the same time I started my journey as a designer. So they've always gone hand in hand for me.

What began as a hobby quickly shaped the way I think and create. Running campaigns taught me how to understand people, their motivations, frustrations, and the things they don’t always say out loud. It showed me how different minds engage with stories and systems, which naturally influenced my interest in inclusive and user-centered design.

For me, design and D&D share the same core. Build a world, invite people in, and shape the experience around who they are. That mindset guides how I work with users, how I listen, and how I turn their stories into meaningful solutions.
