Photography shaped the way I see people. When I was nineteen, I spent hours walking through streets with my camera, waiting for the right moment to appear. It taught me patience. It taught me to notice the small details in someone’s face, posture, or mood. Over time, that habit of keen observation turned me into a better designer. Now, when I work on a product, I approach it the same way I approached those streets - slow down, observe & connect with the people. Photography didn’t just give me a hobby. It taught me empathy and the value of putting the user first.
