Everything starts here.
Before colors, typography and “final_final_finalissimo_super_final_v7”…
there’s just a pen, a page, and chaotic ideas.
My sketchbook is where concepts stop being thoughts and start becoming real.
Messy first. Clear later.
Do you still use sketchbooks, or am I just a big millennial?

Presenting Handwrito ✍️
A tool that turns handwriting into identity.
Draw your own letters, generate a personal font, and watch your words transform into something uniquely human in a digital world of sameness.
Built with Figma Make to explore how technology can preserve personality, emotion, and imperfection through design.
Your handwriting. Your voice. Your type.
#FigmaMakeathon #FigmaMake #Typography #DesignInnovation
For the #FigmaMakeathon, I built Second Thought, an experimental desktop notes experience that reimagines scroll as a tool for going deeper into ideas instead of moving past them.
Instead of treating notes like static containers, the interface evolves with your thoughts, inviting exploration, reflection, and a little more curiosity through interaction itself.
Second Thought turns scrolling into reflection, transforming a familiar gesture into a new way of thinking.

As a kid, I loved coloring inside drawings.
Not creating them — just bringing them to life.
So I built Parallel.
Two strangers enter the same canvas.
One can only draw.
One can only paint.
They move side by side.
Different roles.
One artwork.
You can’t complete it alone.

Built with:
• Real-time multiplayer support
• Live chat between strangers
• Role-restricted drawing system
• Replay & timelapse export
• Shareable view-only canvases
• Fully responsive vintage Mac-style design
