Hey 👋

I’m a UX designer & researcher with a passion for creating user-centered experiences, rooted in my diverse background in startup marketing and an MBA journey.

My path to UX wasn’t linear—I’ve worn many hats, from marketing manager and director to esports instructor and nonprofit executive assistant. These roles sharpened my ability to uncover insights, understand diverse audiences, and design solutions that meet real user needs.

Encouraged by mentors and peers, I transitioned into UX, self-teaching the craft and applying my business insight, branding knowledge, and research skills to every project. Now, I focus on how design and research can bridge the gap between business strategy and the people we serve.

When I’m not designing..

you’ll find me cooking,

traveling,

or swimming!

You might notice Python on my resume..

Yes, I’ve recently started learning Python bit by bit and am still on my journey. In my previous role as a marketing manager at a startup, I recognized the value of understanding the basics of cross-functional work for better communication.

As a UX designer & researcher, I believe in bridging the gap between design and development.
