A little about the person behind the pixels.

I care deeply about the craft of design. I like taking an idea further, trying something unfamiliar, and finding out what I’m capable of beyond what I already know.

From Sri Lanka. Currently based in Dubai.

Care for the craft. Room to grow.

Design systems have shaped much of my work. They’ve given me a way to think about the details and the bigger picture together.

I enjoy getting into how things work, questioning the familiar, and pushing an idea beyond the first version. Staying comfortable for too long usually means it’s time to learn something new.

Working with other people is a big part of that. I bring my principles, but I also try to make room to unlearn. A different perspective can change how I see the whole problem.

The principles I come back to

Good company makes a difference.

Some of my favourite work happens around other designers.

I enjoy bringing people together, exchanging ideas, and helping junior designers find their footing. Community building and mentorship are things I make time for because I enjoy the people as much as the work.
