About Me

Why am I passionate about product design?

🧩 I thrive in ambiguous environments where I get to dive into the challenge of gathering the knowns while exploring opportunities with the unknowns. I aim to define the "why" and "who" to ensure the experience is designed for the user while meeting business goals. Through design thinking workshops, user research, and competitive analysis, I lead my team to uncover the insights that will inform our design approach to solve the problem. Ultimately, I’m driven by the positive impact my work has on people’s lives.

Why am I also interested in experiential?

💥 The boundaries of creativity and potential for emotional impact are endless when experiences break out of the confines of a computer or phone screen. I’m excited to bring my UX skills to the experiential world to create a connected, human-centric experience across physical and digital spaces. 

Why is mentorship important to me?

🤝 I made the transition into UX nearly 8 years into my career, where I first forged my path into UX research, and 6 months later into UX design, without any prior experience in any type of design. In the past 5 years I have grown my career as a Product Design Lead, where I oversee the design strategy for digital products while managing and guiding a team of designers. I know how difficult it can be to change one’s career path, and I love to pay it forward by helping others who are looking for a career change into UX or product design.

Why am I only about work?

🤓 I'm not! In my free time, I'm pursuing my nerdy hobbies of creating piano covers (opens new tab), studying 🇩🇪🇧🇷🇮🇹 and keeping up with 🇫🇷 , building LEGO or jigsaw puzzles (opens new tab), solo traveling, and adding to my Swatch watch collection.
