Self Picture

Jambo! 👏

Welcome welcome~ ! 

I’m a Kenyan-born designer based now in Vancouver, Canada. I have been practicing design professionally for about 5 years and unprofessionally my whole life ever since I decided to make my own comic books (and trading cards)  when I was a teenager. I am passionate about communicating through design and empowering young creatives to do the same. I also have a deep interest in visual storytelling and with my skillset in illustration, graphics and experience design, I aim to expand my influence within the design industry and beyond.

After graduating from university with a degree in architecture, I realized what I was missing post-graduation was a robust support system to surround myself with. To prevent that, one of my lifetime goals is to build a community of creatives and contributors alike who can support each other with collaboration and mentorship as we make design and technology more accessible to the world. 

I think the world can always become a happier place when we can all communicate better :) 

I'm passionate about learning and teaching new skills all the time. I am a firm believer that the more you can do for yourself and for others, the more value you find in life.

Aside from that, I like to draw fanart and cook new meals in my free time. When I'm not working, I’m most likely learning a new language, working out in the gym or playing difficult games! (Elden Ring is kicking my butt right now) 

I'm always up for a chat on any topics regarding product, education and collaboration! - Reach out to me anytime!
