Howdy,
I’m Richard
I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a background in graphic design and product design, driven by curiosity and a love for creating. My journey began with the typiacl posters, logos, and illustrations, which evidently grew into building products such as websites and apps where design supports usability.
I focus on crafting simple, functional experiences with expressive touches that delight without overwhelming. With a foundation in both visual and UX/UI design, I efficiently adapt across mediums to solve problems and bring ideas to life.
Beyond projects, I’ve had the privilege of mentoring and teaching future designers. What excites me most is seeing people use and enjoy the products I create — design that not only works, but makes an impact.
