about-me

Read about some fun & conceptual
design I'ved worked on here.

Hi there!

I'm Debbie, a bilingual (English & French) multidisciplinary designer based in Toronto. I like to blend my technical skills to create meaningful, thought-provoking design experiences by merging technology with emotional connection.

I'm especially passionate about turning life's subtle moments into impactful designs that deeply engage users. What I believe makes my approach unique is how I think of design and its possibilities and looking at it as more of a combination of systems and actions rather than just a set of technical skills. This mindset drives me to question design's role in society and explore its possibilities, pushing the boundaries of what design can achieve.
