00 Chapter 1: Who am I?

I’m a Product Designer based in Ann Arbor, MI, wrapping up my Master’s in Information Science at the University of Michigan (Go Blue!). Before this, I earned my bachelor’s in Computer Science Engineering.
Growing up, I was always immersed in art, music, and books, but it was while tinkering with code in my undergrad that I really began to appreciate the power of good design. I realized how design can transform the way people view and interact with the world, and here I am, trying to make experiences that make people’s lives just a bit easier and brighter.
To broaden my impact, I also pursued a graduate certificate in Innovation & Entrepreneurship, which has helped me connect user needs with business goals to create products that work for people and add value to organizations.
I’m particularly passionate about designing for human connection and social impact
