I’m a product designer who loves getting curious about people and the little things that shape how they experience the world. I’m always interested in understanding why things work the way they do, which probably explains how I found my way into design.
With a background in psychology and business, I enjoy looking at problems from different angles and bringing the pieces together to create experiences that feel thoughtful, intuitive, and human. I love the process of starting with a messy problem and slowly making sense of it, one connection at a time.
When I’m not designing, you can probably find me trying a new recipe, making matcha, listening to music, or falling down a rabbit hole about something new!
My Connections
The communities that keep me in love with design
Gator User Design (GUD)
Gator User Design (GUD) is our design community at UF, and I've held a few positions here including secretary, treasurer, and now senior advisor. A big part of what I do is help grow the community, which I really love. We host workshops, guest speaker talks, design-a-thons, and other fun events, and I get to teach people about design along the way. Meeting people from my school who are into design like I am never gets old, and I just want to do my part to help people in Florida learn about it and find the resources they need!
The team that makes it all happen

Figma @ UF
Figma @ UF is the Figma community here at the University of Florida, and I'm one of the campus leaders! I help bring and teach Figma skills to students at UF, hosting events like workshops and challenges, and I'm also a social lead now helping manage social events for the whole CL program. We're connected with campus leaders across the country and supported by the Figma Edu team, who give us awesome resources like funding and merch so we can put on great events. It matters to me because I get to bring more awareness to our school and advocate for both Figma and the students here!

Develop for Good
Develop for Good (DFG) is where I get to use design to do some good. I was a Design Manager, leading a team of three designers on FLY (Fresh Lifelines for Youth), a mobile coaching app for justice-impacted youth and the coaches who support them, and I worked closely with our product and development leads to build it. It's been really rewarding to lead a team on something that actually helps people!
