Summary
I am a Toy and Board Game Designer with over a decade of experience in creating educational and interactive play experiences that combine physical toys with engaging game mechanics.

By incorporating gamification and multisensory engagement, I strive to make learning fun, accessible, and meaningful for young learners.
