A little about me
I’m a UX designer focused on translating user needs into intuitive, research-driven digital experiences across web, mobile, and complex systems, with a strong emphasis on usability, accessibility, and clear interaction design. I use tools such as Figma, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe Photoshop to create flows, prototypes, and visual concepts, collaborating closely with cross-functional teams while exploring opportunities for AI-enhanced and scalable design solutions.

At AAA, I work on the innovation team, where I help shape new digital concepts across web and mobile experiences. My work includes turning early ideas and user needs into flows, wireframes, and prototypes, refining Figma components to support consistency, and collaborating closely with developers to test feasibility and improve the overall user experience. I also explore AI-supported concepts focused on clearer information flow, automation, and personalization across new initiatives.

At Talk360, I focused on improving the onboarding experience through design systems work, user research, and usability testing. I audited and reorganized Figma libraries to improve handoff and consistency, then used research findings to identify friction points in onboarding and propose design updates that helped increase phone verification success from 57% to 70%. I also applied accessibility and inclusive design principles across key product flows for a global user base.

At General Motors, I contributed to UX design work across in-vehicle, web, and mobile products, helping improve existing user-facing experiences. My work included prototyping solutions in Figma, applying accessibility principles like hierarchy and navigation clarity, and working within an established design system to maintain consistency. I also supported broader design and research efforts across both enterprise and consumer products.

At Stellantis, I created high-fidelity visual concepts to support feature evaluation, user testing, and early product exploration. I worked in Illustrator and Photoshop to develop design directions, then presented them to cross-functional teams and iterated on feedback to help refine concepts for validation.

In Spring of 2025 I graduated from the University of Michigan where I worked to get my Bachelors of Arts with a UX Design Minor. I feel that my heavy experience in design mixed with user research skills allows me to dig deep throughout all steps of UX and product design, from the beginning stages of interviewing and testing all the way up to the final prototypes.
Recently I have been focusing mostly on UX Design and Product Design in school and in the job industry. I find that my fine arts background mixed with my UX studies have helped me in many ways in both areas. In UX it helps me be a more visually conscious when it comes to my design work and within the fine arts I find myself taking the users view into consideration no matter the medium.
