I am a passionate user
experience (UX) designer who

can bring two different
perspectives of a problem
together into a unique solution.
As someone who grew up with
learning disability, I know the
pain of living in a world
designed for others. I’m driven
to incorporate inclusivity and
accessibility into everything
related to design, with a focus
on easy-to-use and functional
design that works well for
everyone.
