My 13 years as an art educator taught me that the best solutions begin with understanding people. By listening, observing, and adapting to the unique needs of my students, I developed a human-centered approach to problem-solving that naturally led me to UX design. Today, I combine that mindset with UX research, visual design, and an iterative design process to create intuitive, accessible digital experiences. I'm a curious, collaborative teammate who values constructive feedback, communicates openly, and is always eager to learn, contribute, and grow alongside others.
