Hello!

I’m a UX designer and researcher who believes in the power of listening, understanding real human needs, and designing with intention.

With a background in Linguistics and a Master’s in UX, I bring both empathy and strategy to every project. Over the past 3 years, I’ve partnered with startups and nonprofits in fintech, mental wellness, and digital accessibility—crafting solutions that are as thoughtful as they are impactful.

Nice to meet you :)!

Featured Projects

Design is about people first. That’s why, when presenting my work, I highlight the humans who inspired the process, and not a shiny prototype. The final product may change through iteration, but it always begins—and remains—a response to a human need.
