Statement

When I was little, I spent all of my spare time drawing. I observed and explored everything around me and expressed my imagination through my sketches. My father was one of the key inventors and manufacturers of cooling fans for computers. He used to take me to his factories to show me the products he invented being engineered and manufactured. This made a huge impact on my creative life. I was amazed to see how an idea could become a series of sketches and eventually turn into a product that could change people's lives. This is why I am now a designer.

Today, I strive to be a leader in design just like my father, both in my own work and in collaboration with others. Inspired by this fast-moving world that embraces progress, energy, diversity, I pursue design that gives static objects energy, motion and emotion. I pursue Design Dynamics.
