As an ArtCenter alum and an Illustration major with a focus on Designmatters, I’ve always been driven by the desire to solve real-world problems through design. Over the past decade, I’ve explored and developed not just my technical skills, but also my mindset—constantly evolving my approach to creativity and innovation.

My career has taken me across industries, from entertainment to consumer products, where I’ve worked on projects for Disney, Sony, HBO, Fox, Warner Bros., Target, TJ Maxx, HomeGoods, and Merri Glow. These experiences shaped my ability to concept, strategize, and craft narratives that connect with people—but what truly shaped my perspective was my own personal journey.

Through the years, I faced life’s unexpected challenges, including losing my home from a fire and health struggles that forced me to slow down and reevaluate my priorities. I realized that beyond aesthetics and function, design has the power to support well-being, create harmony, and bridge gaps in care. This realization led me to UXUI, where I could merge my creative background with user-centered digital experiences that not only engage, but also empower.

Now, my goal is to interlock my background in storytelling and visual design with experiences rooted in real human needs. Through my work, I aim to create thoughtful, immersive, and intuitive interactions that seamlessly integrate with people’s lives—whether it’s through mental wellness, holistic care, or innovative digital spaces that make an impact.
