MY STORY

I've always been a person who balances logic with empathy, which initially led me to pursue a career in clinical psychology during my undergraduate studies. I believed this path would allow me to make a meaningful impact, whether through individual therapy or at a broader scale through academic research.

However, after earning my degree in psychology, I realized that my creativity in problem-solving was a key strength that felt underutilized. While I respected the academic environment, I craved more freedom to experiment with sense-making while still making a positive impact. This led me to design outdoor itineraries for a tour outfitter, where I crafted experiences that left people transformed through physical and educational outdoor engagement.

In 2022, I took a significant step forward by earning my Master’s in Interaction Design from California College of the Arts. This transition allowed me to integrate creativity, sense-making, and empathy into user-centric research and development, impacting both users and colleagues in meaningful ways.

Today, I’m proud to leverage these strengths in my work as a researcher and strategist, helping companies cut through ambiguity and tackle their toughest challenges with grace, focus, and rigor.

Let's build something great together.
