About

I've always been drawn to digital experiences that make life feel a little smoother and keep people connected long before I even considered design as a career.

That curiosity led me to study human-computer interaction at UC San Diego, where I learned to look under the hood of how people interact with technology and how we can apply design principles to make those experiences better.

My work aims to strike a balance between empathy, logic, and innovation. I believe every good solution starts with listening to the people you're designing for, deeply understanding their frustrations, and understanding what helps them accomplish their goals. I view problems as puzzles to be solved, and use constraints as a means to a solution that brings value to everyone involved.

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me keeping active, chasing down new music, or trying a recipe I saw online. I’m a big fan of San Diego sunsets, live concerts, and spending time at the beach with good food and better company.

I’m also the kind of person who loves streaks. I have a streak of 1,600+ days on BeReal, plus a daily rotation of NYT and LinkedIn puzzles. At this point, breaking the streak feels almost disrespectful.
