ABOUT ME

I'm a graphic-media enthusiast attached to experiment with visual communication problems with technology. From building brand identity to researhcing social perception of products.

As an alumni at ITP, NYU. My passions are closely tied with computational media effects on society, education and religion. I love to translate perspectives to the users language; to move them and lit their dormant passions. I consider myself a digital media designer; detail-oriented visual designer and storyteller of raw human interactions. I am passionate to experiment with interactive platforms to communicate perspectives and culture.

On the side, I love programming languages and vector designs, and especially love to teach students. I have recently taught at Mongolia at Huree University in the Multimedia department. And am looking forward for more teaching opportunities in the future.

SKILLS

I am a graphic design researcher with front-end coding skills. With background in media design,technology & architecture, I craft insightful communication thru research.

Over the years I have built expertise in design consulting in visual communications, design research with data, building brand identity, systems design thinking, long-term template usage, design communication dynamics.

All projects take in consideration of the clients need and the needs of the audience. Consisting of well-developed conceptual phases.

I have a philosophy that every client have their marketing dependables and must be designed to fit the market assets/resources at hand. And that room for experimentation comes with control and responsibility. That creativity is the actionable idea that makes the smallest, but impactful change.
