BUT WHAT DO I DO?
Design is about making life easier and more meaningful by improving how people connect with technology and their surroundings. For me, it’s about understanding people’s needs, crafting intuitive experiences, and solving real-world challenges with empathy and care. It’s not just about aesthetics—it’s about creating designs that genuinely help and empower others in their everyday lives. All of my following works in my portfolio are my best attempts so far to do so.

JUSTWALK
JustWalk is an assistive device for people who might be visually impaired or just need more independence while walking.
I worked on all the technical parts of this project including the coding, motion graphics, wiring, physical project set up and the design file itself. Made using Arduino UNO, Adobe Photoshop, Printed Vinlys, Adobe Illustrator, 3D Printing and Adobe After-Effects.

CANADIAN TIRE
Me and my team conducted user tests on 27 users and did a mock Dev Hand-Off for the Canadian Tire website.
We went through user research, user testing, detailed heuristic analysis, wireframing, prototyping and much more to accurately perform it. We used FIGMA for it.

CANCER.CA
I did Heuristic Analysis on the Canadian Cancer Society website to figure out their main goals and how those goals can be achieved in a more sufficient way.
Then I redesigned the basic base and design of the website on figma, adding new illustrations, fixing inconsistent branding and removing outdated information.

UNSOLVABLE
UNSOLVABLE is a mystery and crime solving VR (Virtual Reality) game in which you, as a detective, are trying to solve a case that hits a bit too close to home before it gets turned into a cold case.
I worked on this project fully on my own and did C# and JavaScript coding to make the interactions work, along with some 3D Modeling on Blender with the base software as Unity and Oculas-Pro VR Headset.

UNSOLVABLE
NOCDRONE is a safety/security system/service run on drones. It was one of the scenarios made for the JustWalk project hence it's only in design, however it's visual design and branding was made from scratch, down to every vector, by me using Adobe Illustrator.
Security service but like Uber/Lyft.

How does one know they want to be a designer? Is it something they notice that can be changed? It definitely isn't the economy otherwise you would be reading my resume on how many successful surgeries I have performed. At least we know I am in this for the love of the game.
