(pronounced ri-they waliaa)

I am a Product Designer and Technologist with a passion for building immersive, and interactive experiences for people. I'm thrilled to be a designer in the current landscape — as someone with an ambitious imagination, I've been having a lot of fun with experimenting and building at will.

With over 5 years of experience, I've helped startups and museums alike bring their visions to life, from 0-to-1 product launches to interactive exhibits that make you go 😮.
