About Me

Passionate about crafting digital experiences that marry form and function, I am Nicholas, a seasoned UI/UX designer and graphic/brand designer. I believe that design is not just about making things look beautiful; it's about making them work beautifully. My goal is to create designs that leave a lasting impression and, most importantly, make users' lives easier.

With 12 years in the industry, I've had the privilege of collaborating with a diverse range of clients and companies, from startups to established brands. My experience extends to designing intuitive mobile apps, engaging websites, and eye-catching marketing materials that convey the essence of each project.
