My Values

Always be open.

I always believe that nobody is born to know everything.  I am always open to new ideas and comments.

Never stop learning.

I believe that I am never too late to learn new stuff. I enjoy being challenged and learning new pieces of knowledge to solve problems. That's why I like reading articles on a broad range of topics.

Keep the curiosity.

Curiosity is one of the factors that drove me into design careers in the first place. I try to keep my curiosity along the way.

Be kind.

I always believe that if I treat people kindly, they would do the same. We are all human beings after all.

Things that bring me joy

Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the.
