USER EXPERIENCE DESIGNER
BASED IN CALIFORNIA

A user-centered approach to design, guided by principles of empathy, curiosity, and boldness, fuels my deep passion for design as it combines technical problem-solving with collaborative human interaction.

 

My favorite aspects of the design process include hands-on engagement like sketching, brainstorming, and activities that encourage active participation. I thrive in the iterative design process and especially enjoy the feedback-design cycle. Perfect is the enemy of done—I believe in releasing designs and iterating based on user feedback.

 

The constantly evolving nature of the tech industry excites me, as it offers endless opportunities to learn, grow, and innovate.

​

With two years of professional experience in UX Design & Research, combined with four years of education in the University of Michigan School of Information, I have developed strong skills in designing intuitive user experiences and effectively communicating user needs across diverse teams. My experience includes working with multiple SaaS companies and startups.

BOLDNESS
Curiosity: I have always been driven by curiosity, eager to try new things, seek new experiences, and listen to others' stories. In the design process, this manifests as an unwavering openness to new ideas and improvements.

Empathy: Empathy is at the heart of my interactions, both in design and in life. While kindness can be learned, intuitively understanding others' feelings with an open mind is fundamental to who I am. While designing, this translates to empathizing with users to create tailored, user-centric designs.
​
Boldness: I am proud of who I am and find joy in seeing others embrace their true selves. This mindset is crucial in design for providing honest feedback and advocating for user needs, maintaining open and direct communication.
