My Journey

My journey into UX began in a college web design class, where I discovered my passion for combining research with visual design. That experience led me to minor in Web Design and deepen my focus on user-centered thinking. Today, I approach every project by focusing on the user. I conduct research to understand their needs and design intuitive, intentional interfaces in response.

Outside of UX, I’m a licensed tattoo artist and painter. Through these creative disciplines, I’ve developed a strong sense of composition, precision, and visual storytelling. These skills directly translate into the intention and clarity behind my UI work.

I’m now looking to join a collaborative team where I can continue growing and refining my skills as a designer.

My design principles

Design with Intention

Every element has intent and guides users with clarity and purpose.

Design with Research

I let research lead the way to create designs that truly serve users

Attention to detail and strong composition create seamless, intuitive experiences.
