Blog
Fragments of motion, memory, and meaning ā thoughts shaped by design, tech, tourism, and the rhythm of island life. A space to reflect, to build, to connect stories across code and coastlines, ideas and instincts, craft and culture. Everything here moves. Just like we do.
Design
Rooted Branding. Built to Last.
Brands should feel like home. I design systems that reflect who you are ā grounded, aligned, and made to grow with you.
Merch That Moves
Wear your story. I design garments and goods that feel intentional. From street to shelf, always on brand.
Print That Hits Different
Posters, brochures, and all things inked ā I design with intention, clarity, and that edge that makes people look twice.
Designs That Move Through the Feed
Posts, stories, covers ā built to stop the scroll and say something real. Strategy meets style in every piece.
Tech

Self
Wearing All the Hats Without Losing Myself

Why I Built This Myself
This site isnāt a theme ā itās my brain, my voice, my hands. I made this so people can actually understand what I do and why.
Just Writing
Stillness is Not Inactivity
Motion without meaning is noise. Iāve learned to slow down, not stop ā and that changed everything.
Midnight Means Something Else
For some, midnight is silence. For others, itās when everything finally speaks.
I Donāt Just Make Things ā I Translate Myself
Every project I create is a version of me trying to say something clearly ā in design, in silence, in code.
