When I am designing

I combine research-driven logic with human-centered inquiry to define product directions and transform early-stage ambiguity into engaging user-focused experiences.

About Me

My unique background blends analytical rigor and visual craft. My previous training in biomedical research sharpened my evidence-driven mindset, honing my ability to work with complex data, analyze patterns, and think critically. I apply that same scientific rigor to uncovering root causes behind user challenges and designing methodologies that lead to objective, human-centered solutions. My previous work in arts and exhibition design taught me to engage diverse audiences and create intuitive flows, skills I apply in digital design every day. This background helps me advocate for what truly matters to a user, allowing me to take a messy system and organize it into a straightforward interface.

When I am not designing

I lead an art practice featured in Forbes, USA Today, with work exhibited in museums and galleries. I track emerging tech: attending AI talks, playing with new tools, and exploring how to push digital boundaries.
