About me

Bio

Hi, I’m Victor, a creative problem solver originally from Montreal, Canada, now based in Sydney, Australia (Relocating to Toronto, Canada in February 2025). With over 10 years of design experience, my journey began in Industrial Design, where I learned the fundamentals of design thinking and honed my ability to create solutions that are not only user-centred but also make business sense.

From a young age, I was captivated by the endless possibilities of creation. I would spend hours building and rebuilding with Lego, determined to bring my ideas to life. This passion for creation naturally led me to a career in Industrial Design. Over time, my focus shifted from tangible products to digital experiences, where I now apply my skills as a UX Researcher and Service Designer, occasionally stepping into UX Design roles.

My work is deeply rooted in active listening and ethical design practices. I strive to create solutions that are inclusive, thoughtful, and impactful. Driven by a desire to make a positive difference, I approach each challenge with curiosity and resilience, constantly asking "why" and embracing a growth mindset.
