Behind The Screen

With an affinity for travel, camaraderie, and graphite pencils, I've been fortunate enough to experience bits and pieces of this world all while doing what I love - learning about, and immersing myself in an array of cultures, cultivating new relationships, and doodling along the way.

Armed with a patchwork of traits and skills, I eventually found myself drawn to the field of UX/UI, the methodology of empathy-based research and design, and understanding the "why" behind user decisions. Now, I'm able to pair my gentle demeanor and ability to communicate effectively with an eye for delightful visuals, creating positive experiences for users, as well as functional, appealing solutions to user challenges.
