About me
I’m a thoughtful and detail-oriented Product & UX Designer who enjoys turning complex systems into clear, intuitive experiences. My UX journey began through a 10-month, one-on-one mentorship, which gave me a strong foundation in UX design, design thinking, and problem-solving.
Before design, I worked as a travel agent - an experience that shaped how I think about user journeys, planning, and decision-making. I still love traveling and designing my own trips, approaching them much like product flows. I’m highly organized, patient, and enjoy mentoring others, which I further developed while teaching UX design at Algebra Bernays University. I’m motivated by meaningful collaboration, continuous learning, and creating products that genuinely improve everyday experiences.
