My Resume
This project aimed to enhance the user experience of internal tools used by the team. The focus was on streamlining workflows, improving accessibility, and ensuring that the tools are intuitive for all users. By conducting user interviews and usability testing, we identified key pain points and implemented design solutions that significantly improved efficiency and satisfaction among team members.
My design work lives at the intersection of modernism & elegant simplicity. Placing emphasis on typography, color, and motion. — My process begins by visualizing an overall narrative for the project, making it impossible to ignore. — I incorporate interaction into my designs because you feel a connection when things move as you’d expect them to.

A personal passion. One of my goals in life is to do something similar to what Sebastião Salgado did in Brazil and contribute to my region's biome, the caatinga through building a micro agroforestry and creating a reference for the other villagers to do the same. Sustainably generate food while contributing to the environment.
I'm training to run my second half Marathon on Amsterdam TCS

My family history, and African-indigenous heritage
My cat Brokolis is a bit overweight, so the vet sent me on a mission to help him climb some stairs. His brother Laumius is also helping by playing with him and stealing food from him.
