Beyond the Screen

Taking photos, dialing in sound, sharing knowledge, and riding the open road.

Framing the Real World
I enjoy exploring the world through photography. Capturing everyday details off-screen helps keep my eye for composition and framing sharp when I step away from the digital canvas.

Sonic Tinkering
Playing guitar and experimenting with my home studio setup helps me recharge. Tinkering with audio interfaces engages a completely different, purely auditory creative muscle.

Mentorship & Community
I share practical design frameworks on LinkedIn to support up-and-coming designers. Giving back to the community is honestly the most effective way to keep refining my own thinking.

Analog Mechanics
My favourite escape is taking my Royal Enfield Hunter 350 on spontaneous day trips. Getting my hands dirty with its maintenance provides a perfect, tactile contrast to building digital software.
