A bit more about me

I’m a self-taught designer at Rice University studying Cognitive Sciences with minors in Business and Data Science. I love to explore and observe the world around me to craft solutions that truly spark meaningful human connections! 

Currently, I serve as a Figma Campus Leader and Director for Rice's annual Design-a-thon. This past summer, I was a product design intern at Paycom, where I helped simplify the onboarding experience for pre-employment specialists. 

In my free time, you can find me journaling, hunting for the best matcha in town, and keeping track of all my little adventures (Beli, Letterboxd, Strava, Goodreads, and more).

Build tools that help people communicate, collaborate, & feel more connected to one another.

Lead with empathy

Ground solutions rooted in a deep understanding of users & the contexts that shape their experiences.

The human touch

Create moments that feel effortless while still being genuinely enjoyable to use.
