Experience


I am passionate about user
experience (UX) and using
empathy to see different
perspectives of a problem
together into a unique solution.
Through big-picture thinking
and narrative reasoning, I am
able to make novel connections
to create opportunities.
Combining these skills and my
design education allows me to
develop designs that are
innovative and work for them
no matter who they are.
