ux design

i started off wanting to study biology, but i accidentally fell in love with human centered design.

as a design consultant,

i adapt quickly to new teams, products, and workflows, and contribute wherever i’m needed.

​

along the way, i’ve sharpened my skills in:

  • design thinking

  • design systems & documentation

  • visual design

  • audits & research

  • information architecture

  • wireframing & prototyping

 

no matter the project, i’m committed to creating thoughtful, user-friendly experiences & learning something new with every challenge.
