Growing up, I was a sprinter, with my best 100-meter time clocking in at 11.24 seconds. Running fast was my passion, and even today, I still love the thrill of hitting the ground running. Funny thing is, when I joined the tech world, I realized that “sprints” aren’t just for athletes. In design, it’s all about quick iterations, solving problems efficiently, and delivering the best possible result in a short time frame—much like preparing for a race.

Just like in sprinting, design is often a race against myself, pushing past my own creative limits and constantly improving. I’ve learned that whether it’s refining a user experience or developing a new product feature, the focus, dedication, and drive to outdo myself are the same. Working in tech as a designer gives me the same rush as running a race, and I bring that energy to every project I take on, always striving for speed, clarity, and impact
