Fun Fact
In my last team I was known as 'The Detective' for always asking 'WHY?'
Which always broke down the complex into a clear 'WHAT'.
Leading my early career at a product startup meant pitching to executives, which also meant every decision needed strong rationale, data, and impact - a value I still carry.

Background
Psychology - I love humans and their complexities. I also love translating them into intuitive digital experiences.

My pursuit
To create experiences that don't just meet user needs, but anticipate them.
[ WORK PERSONALITY]
The best solutions can come from anywhere. Designers need collaboration to see the whole picture
We need to assume the best intent in our team. Shared understanding is important and so are the artifacts we use to communicate
Just start, there's no good design, always better design. Start and strive for the better through iteration and feedback
[ MY STORY]
I’ve always been fascinated by how people think, not just what they think, but how their minds process the world, how they make decisions, and how they connect to the spaces around them.
My journey started in psychology. At first, I was drawn to the complexity of it. Why do people choose one path over another? What mental models guide them through uncertainty? But it wasn’t until I discovered UX that these questions found a home.
The core values of UX: curiosity, empathy, and problem solving, felt like an extension of the way I already saw the world.
But I wanted to not just understand these systems, but to shape them. That’s what led me to pursue a Master’s in HCI
One of the most valuable things I’ve learned is agility, the ability to move fluidly between disciplines, to collaborate across different domains, and to adapt my thinking based on the context. Whether it’s understanding a user’s unspoken needs or aligning multiple perspectives toward a shared vision, I thrive in the in-between spaces where strategy and design meet.
At my core, I am a systems thinker and a problem solver. But more than anything, I am deeply invested in people, how they navigate the world, how they engage with technology, and how thoughtful design can make those interactions richer, more intuitive, and more human.
