👋 I'm a UX Designer passionate about empowering individuals and communities through technology and design. My diverse professional background has shaped my approach in my work as a UX Designer - I combine storytelling, empathy, problem-solving, and data-driven design to create delightful and functional digital experiences.
🎬 Before joining the field of UX Design, I earned my bachelor’s degree in film production and had the opportunity to write and direct a short film.
💼 After college I worked with a non-profit organization as a grant writer and administrative associate. Throughout my career journey, regardless of what I'm doing, I've always had the goal of helping people through my work.
🚀 While working for the non-profit I realized I wanted to make an impact through more tangible solutions which led me to discovering and studying UX Design at UC Berkeley Extension.
❤️ When I’m not working, you can find me arguing with my pet bird Kiwi, tending to my houseplants, and trying out new recipes in my kitchen (I especially love Japanese cuisine).
