I never set out to "fix education." I just wanted to learn in ways that felt real. As a designer turned product builder, I was obsessed with creating things that made sense to people — experiences that looked good, worked well, and solved real problems. But somewhere between design briefs and product roadmaps, I started noticing something deeper: the way we learn doesn’t reflect the way we build. That thought stayed with me through my journey at Slamitt, where I spent three years building products, running research, and understanding how businesses actually operate. I realised that most of what shaped me didn’t come from theory; it came from experimentation, feedback loops, and the freedom to fail fast. That is how LIT School began, as a space where learning meets doing and students don’t just prepare for the industry but become part of it. At LIT, I lead product, branding, and design strategy, ensuring every program mirrors how real work happens in the modern world. Design thinking lies at the core of my work. It allows me to connect creativity, technology, and systems thinking to solve complex learning challenges. Every course, product, and experience we design follows the same principle: start with empathy, prototype continuously, and improve through iteration. What drives me is simple. I believe learning today shouldn’t solve for knowledge; it should solve for intention. The intention to build, to question, to create, and to lead with context. That is what we are building every day at LIT.
