Outside of digital products, I'm an Origami Artist and educator. I love making things with my hands using paper and metal. I've created dozens of original pieces, taught workshops to all ages, built an international community through OrigamiTalk, exhibited at Dubai Design Week, and collaborated with brands like VERSACE and PRADA.
I love the outdoors. I'm a licensed skydiver, swimmer, and skier, and I fly drones and shoot video in my free time.
