Teaching Philosophy

I believe in teaching design as a way of thinking, not merely a set of technical skills. Every course I teach integrates human-centered design principles — starting with empathy, moving through ideation, and always validating through testing and iteration.

My approach emphasizes creative confidence: helping students discover that creativity is not an innate talent but a trainable skill, like a muscle in the gym. I strive to create a learning environment where experimentation is encouraged and every idea has value.
