Product designer crafting meaningful experiences through research, empathy, and creativity.

my experience

Growing up, I saw how often people around me struggled to make sense of systems that weren't designed with them in mind—forms that were hard to read, interfaces that felt cold or confusing, or everyday moments that could've been easier with just a little more thoughtfulness. I've always been drawn to clarity and beauty, but more than anything, I've been drawn to making people feel understood. That's what led me to design.

my background

I studied Graphic Design at Boston University, where I developed not only a deep appreciation for typography, color, and composition, but also a mindset rooted in empathy and intention. For me, design isn't just about visuals—it's about building trust, guiding people through experiences, and communicating something bigger than words. I wanted to learn how to make work that didn't just look good, but that helped people feel capable, curious, and seen.
