Hi!
I'm a UX and Product Designer who creates frictionless, inclusive experiences grounded in research, deep empathy, and a background in both linguistics and visual design.
My work sits at the intersection of product strategy, systems thinking, and human dignity. I ask careful questions, listen closely, and design with intention — especially in spaces where trust, agency, and long-term relationships matter.
Before moving into UX, I was a writing teacher, illustrator, and surface designer. Those experiences continue to shape how I design today: with clarity, empathy, and an appreciation for how people feel — not just how they move across screens. Increasingly, I bring that same intentionality to AI-augmented workflows, designing and building with greater speed without losing sight of the person on the other end.
The Crossover Skillset
My background shaped how I think, not just what I design.
Teacher →
The Facilitator
I learned clarity is kindness. Years of explaining complex concepts to students of different levels taught me how to break down ambiguity and create an inclusive experience in the classroom.
Illustrator →
The Visual Storyteller
I learned to guide the eye. My background in art ensures that my designs aren't just functional; they use hierarchy, balance, and visual rhythm to lead users intuitively through a flow.

The Systems Thinker
I learned the power of the pattern. Creating seamless repeats requires an obsession with consistency and grids. I bring that same rigor to building scalable Design Systems where every component fits perfectly.
