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 like 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.

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.
