With a mixed background, I’ve struggled to find a field where my love for writing and eye for design could meet. That spark came during a web design course at New York University, where I first discovered JavaScript. Since then, my journey has grown into user research and product design where I found an intersection that fits.

I’m drawn to thoughtful digital design and the challenge of turning abstract ideas into tangible experiences. I also published a Medium article on designing wellness app for Gen Z.

outside design, I am always on the hunt for good inspirations.
