The pattern work targets stationery and home decor markets and is sold via an Etsy shop. Primary professional work spans branding, design systems, art direction, and UI/UX for tech, fintech, retail, and media clients, currently also working remotely at Welocalize.
Selected Instagram patterns (from 2022 and 2025 series) suggest decorative, motif-driven surface designs with a considered visual direction.
