Hi, I’m

Tina.

I am a designer and creative director. I spend my time building visual systems, telling stories, and directing teams to create thoughtful experiences across digital and physical mediums. For the past decade, my work has focused on making complex ideas simple, useful, and effortless to navigate. Whether managing a studio, advising on creative software, or collaborating with cross-functional partners, I look for clarity and balance in everything I make. I love the entire lifecycle of a project—from early sketches on a whiteboard to the final polish of a finished product.

I focus on clean visual systems that prioritize whitespace and functional layout design. As a leader, I manage budgets, plan strategy, and build collaborative environments where teams can do their best work. Through advanced lab directions, I coordinate groups of designers and researchers to build interactive stories, digital platforms, and structural physical installations. This work has secured over $1M in project support from major enterprise partners and earned a top platform leadership award. Alongside this, I run independent workshops at leading global universities and software institutions to make advanced design concepts intuitive and accessible.

Away from the desk, I spend my time hiking and photographing natural landscapes. The geometry and balance found in nature directly influence my approach to clean, minimalist layouts. I also design free app-prototyping workshops for youth at local libraries and experiment with hands-on printmaking, blending traditional tactile workflows with modern production engines.
