"Being a designer is about believing that there is a better way of doing things."

I have always been drawn to the intersection of technology and creativity.

Over the years, I've written & recorded music, captured photos & videos, and drawn & written stories. I often gravitated towards digital tools because of their convenience and endless possibilities. As I used these tools, I began deconstructing the user interfaces of the software.

During college, I studied graphic design and advertising. This experience sparked an interest in design in me as I hadn't been exposed to the world of design before then. Once I learned about UI and UX design, I found that the field was an excellent fit for my skills and interests.

Later during my time working in tech support, I gained valuable experience in empathically solving problems for users, surveying, documenting, and presenting their pain points.

Since then, I’ve worked at the design firm Intelligaia and currently I work on the Design System at Norwegian Cruise Line. In my spare time I've worked on a number of personal app ideas and freelance projects.
