Hi I'm Siomara, for short Siom! I strongly believe that education should drive passion not limit it, to ensure this vision project idea.env was born. (11.2024-now!) I'm passionate about entrepeneurship, quantum physics (hella yhh) and design! -my pfp is actually the 'logo' of my personal brand lol. Design= math x imaginary numbers. A concept that uses design as a way to add value and turn powerful ideas into practical outcomes. Just as QM applies 'i' to portrait multiple chances of electrons' states, it also reveals them. Design does that in the form of adding purpose to ideas capable to shape our identity. Now, let's make something big together. https://coda.io/d/iDEA-env_drGrqLaXWrU
