About Me

Square One

I discovered UX Design when I had just departed from my long-standing goal of becoming a doctor. It wasn’t the right fit for me, but it took a pandemic and a 450-sq ft. apartment to make that truly click. Once I faced that life-altering realization, I pivoted to look for a career that better combined what I loved to do with what was most important to me.

The Right Direction

UX Design is the perfect blend of technology, research, and design to fit the pattern of my life. In undergrad, I balanced STEM courses and a research fellowship with freelance graphic design work. I went on to balance brand consulting work at Shift Digital with UX graduate courses at Michigan State. I found an industry where I could be data-driven, creative, and advocate for real people. I was 100% in.

Coming Full Circle

What really drew me into UX was the continuous drive toward efficiency for the users. Helping people feel confident and empowered throughout these processes is what drives me. I am always excited to explore new UX opportunities and bring fresh and innovative designs to life.

When I'm not at my desk, I enjoy reading, coloring, and pickleball!
