Why Design?

I recently graduated from the University of Michigan's School of Information (#GoBlue💙), specializing in UX Design & Research and Human-Computer Interaction. My background in Electronics & Telecommunications gives me a unique edge in understanding and crafting interactions between people and technology.


During my school at Umich, I was a Graduate Student Instructor (GSI), where I taught SI 364: Building Data-Driven Applications under Prof. Charles Severance (Dr. Chuck!!). and SI 658: Information Architecture under Prof. Dan Klyn. These experiences have allowed me to deepen my understanding of both programming and design, as well as mentor students in these fields.


Outside of academia, I produce music, cook, and am learning Classical Piano. I am passionate about exploring different cuisines and enhancing my culinary skills. As a self-taught designer, I enjoy creating simple and effective solutions for complex systems and currently work as a freelancer, helping product teams build enjoyable user experiences.

To summarize, my work is...
