UX/UI Designer passionate about creating equitable digital experiences.
At every opportunity, I listen to the experiences of others to further understand the world and how we function in it. On evening runs and weekend hikes, I reflect on these stories, and as often as possible, I express their impact through painting and design.
TLDR: Empathy, exploration, and connection are core to who I am.




My approach combines thorough user research, collaborative design thinking, and iterative prototyping to deliver products that not only look beautiful but truly serve user needs and business objectives.
Bridging gaps has driven my 4 years teaching multicultural classrooms. From diving into data and incorporating technology to asking the right questions and collaborating with students - every step brought them closer to their goals and led to a 140% increase in Algebra I EOC pass rates! 
The payoff of empathy, collaboration, and inclusivity in the classroom is what led me to UX and inspired my passion for inclusive and educational product design.

UX work has sharpened my education skills in several ways. I have conducted market research, usability studies, created affinity maps in Miro, and crafted personas based on user interviews. Not just analyzing data, but selecting the appropriate strategies for collecting it.
I have created wireframes and iterated on low and high fidelity flows in Figma, using data and feedback to best meet user needs. I have even applied current AI tools to super power my design process and assist with prototyping while staying true to user needs, design goals, and best practices. 

In 2025, I completed Google's comprehensive UX Design professional certification program, mastering the fundamentals of user-centered design through hands on projects and real world applications. 
This intensive program deepened my understanding of design thinking, user research methodologies, wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing - reinforcing the foundation that drives my inclusive design approach.
