According to him, engineering focuses on systems, efficiency and problem-solving—concepts he believes are equally important in design and branding.
He said in his LinkedIn post:
"Somewhere along the way, curiosity kicked in. I started exploring other interests and ended up completing courses in UI/UX Design and Digital Marketing. What began as “just learning something new” quickly turned into a real passion for brand identity and creative design.
Now people ask me:
“So… what are you going to do with a degree in Industrial and Production Engineering?”
My answer is simple.
Industrial and Production Engineering is about systems, efficiency, problem-solving, and designing better processes. In many ways, great brands are built the same way.
Good design isn’t just about making things look nice.
It’s about structure, clarity, functionality, and experience the same principles engineers use when designing systems.
So whether it’s optimising a production line or building a brand identity, the goal is still the same: create something that works beautifully and delivers real value.
Engineering trained my mind to solve problems.
Design gave me a canvas to apply it creatively."
