About Me
Growing up in 6 countries across 3 continents gave me the opportunity to become observant, adaptive, and inclusive from an early stage in my life. Meeting people from various cultures built my curiosity about humans and how they make decisions every day.

For the last 2+ years, I've been exploring my way through the field—starting off with a UX bootcamp, tackling personal and group projects, working as an in-house B2B product designer, gaining agency experience, networking and community building. I've experienced both highs - celebrating a launch together as a team, receiving recognition for leadership, and that heartfelt "thank you" from clients, and lows - seeing a team fall apart, micromanaging managers and layoffs.

Coming from a corporate background where responsibilities were clear-cut to now navigating through ambiguity has taught me the importance of stepping up, taking initiative, engaging others, and driving progress collaboratively as a team. The iterative process of design can feel overwhelming at times, but it’s taught me so much about life outside of design—the value of resilience, the beauty of collaboration, and the power of continuous improvement.

I'm excited for what the future holds and the people I'm yet to meet along the way. While freelancing, I'm searching for a full-time opportunity where I can grow, inspire, and build impactful products together.

Outside of work, I like to ✈️ travel to old and new places, 😋 have some great food with great company, and✨ look out for design inspirations in the everyday!
