Product Designer - Home & Lifestyle

I am a product designer working across home and lifestyle categories, with experience spanning textiles, daily objects, furniture, and IP-driven products.
 
My work covers the full product spectrum—from early concept development and material strategy to product systems, cross-functional collaboration, and large-scale commercial execution. I have led and delivered hundreds of products that have been successfully launched to market.
 
I bring a balanced perspective between creative direction and practical decision-making, with a focus on building scalable, well-structured product lines that respond to contemporary living needs.
