From practicing doctor to Digital Innovator & Entrepreneur
I discovered I had a knack for design late in life. While temporarily on a break from medicine, I played around with different new pastimes which included home design, cooking, vintage styling, & furniture refinishing. I even tried my hand at blogging! The deeper I got, in my foray into the digital space, the more creative I became (and the freer I felt). I even started making impact in my own field of healthcare! “Who knew,” I thought. I had found myself a new home. And it’s where I’ve lived since.
Today, I design, strategize, & reshape everything and anything that comes my way; from projects to websites to everyday content. I’m exactly where I’m meant to be.
