About

Drawing from my rich technical and multidisciplinary backgrounds in software engineering, business, and sociology, I am a designer who finds value in solving both user and business problems through bridging gaps and connecting ideas across cross-functional teams.

Some of my work that reflects these values includes:

  • Streamlining the design-to-development process through building design systems

  • Drawing consensus and alignment in cross-functional teams through creating functional prototypes, high-fidelity designs, and wireframes

  • Designing 0→1 product features and systems with minimal guidance

  • Maximizing business value through strategic thinking and stakeholder management
