I am a design researcher with a strong focus on ethnographic studies and cultural identity in design. My recent research explored the cultural identity of the Chin ethnic group and how it can be visually represented to strengthen community heritage and awareness. This project aimed to bridge traditional narratives with contemporary design methodologies, contributing to cultural sustainability.

Beyond my research, I have extensive experience in graphic design, and branding, particularly in educational and non-governmental sectors. As a mentor, I am passionate about guiding emerging researchers and creative professionals in developing critical thinking skills, conducting meaningful research, and applying design principles to real-world challenges. My mentoring philosophy centers on fostering curiosity, cross-disciplinary collaboration, and practical research applications.
