After graduating with a business degree,

I’ve always immersed myself in the arts.
I grew up drawing Pokemon, playing piano & cello, and made silly YouTube videos. Product design was the common denominator where my interests in creativity, human psychology, and business strategy aligned.

My design process is powered by:
Curiosity, deep edge case thinking, and a love for beautiful design. To effectively advocate for users and companies, I leverage my strategic and analytical skills from IB to design with high ROI and usability.
