I’m a designer turned data storyteller and world-builder. I create visuals and experiences that blend clarity, imagination, and quiet luxury, whether it’s a mocktail, a dataset, or a sci-fi universe.

Hi5 was an early social platform, launched in 2003. Americans mostly ignored it. Big in Latin America & Southeast Asia with tens of millions of users at its peak, today it’s mostly social games & dating.
