About

From crafting accessible political articles in college to delving into the user-centric world of design, I've consistently aimed to simplify complex systems for diverse audiences. Today, I leverage my unique background in HCI and design to bridge the gap between intricate technologies and the everyday user.

​My design philosophy is inspired by Henry Ford's famous quote, “If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.” I think creating elegant user experiences isn't about giving people exactly what they ask for, it's about understanding their needs and designing solutions they never knew they needed.

My Design Process

01

Define

I approach the problem by finding a balance between user needs and business goals

02

Research

I backup every design decision with research and data

03

Iteration

Nothing is perfect on the first try - I thrive on design iterations and user testing.
