About

Automotive Designer passionate about crafting innovative and timeless concepts that merge aesthetics with functionality. My design journey has led me to work on an international scale, including a collaborative project with Genesis in Frankfurt, where I explored visionary approaches to future mobility, and an internship at Pininfarina in Shanghai, contributing to the Exterior Design Department on projects that embodied both elegance and performance. With a strong focus on detail, proportion, and storytelling through form, I strive to create vehicles that go beyond transportation—turning design into emotion and movement into art.
