About Me

I started my career in technology as a software engineer, which led me to an interest in human-centered design. My first hands-on experience was at bp, where I discovered my passion for writing and storytelling. That sparked my transition into digital strategy and project management, where I help experts and teams translate complex ideas into clear, user-focused communication that builds trust, credibility, and growth.
