My joy for problem-solving and design became transparent to me through my hobbies of strategic games, puzzles, learning new crafts, and creating sewing patterns. My previous career of 8 years in fashion design gave me a strong foundation for visual design, but did not offer me the analytical complexity I found with UX. Solidifying my love for web design, I started creating websites on builder tools, picking up clients along the way. My transition to UX Design was a no-brainer, and I am so excited to gain more experience, level up my skills, and grow with a team.
Passionate about problem solving and design, I blend creativity with functionality to enhance usability.
