I’m a creative director and brand identity designer with over a decade in APAC, shaping design systems that align strategy with cultural context. I’ve led identity refreshes for Singapore International Film Festival, Chinabank, Cycle & Carriage, and Abenson, bringing clarity and structure across digital, retail, and environmental touchpoints.

My approach is objective and principle-led. I help teams and clients make decisions with confidence, building brand identities that elevate their brand purpose and foster positive brand experiences.

I’ve worked with global agencies like IDEO, Interbrand, and Landor & Fitch, and now leading creative at Louken, a Singapore-based venture builder and brand consultancy. Outside of client projects, I produce electronic music, a practice that keeps my creative thinking experimental.
