Hello

Bio

A multidisciplinary creative at heart, I'm a senior at UC San Diego studying Cognitive Science, Design, and Marketing.

Early Career

In my early career, I designed 0 to 1 mobile apps and conversational AI for B2B products. I found my voice in content design, where I use words to guide, delight, and build trust with my users. Now, I’m blending my background in cognition and design to craft experiences that feel human.

Values

I sweat the details. I thrive on tackling complex product problems across design disciplines (content, product, systems, marketing) with an emphasis on storytelling. I hold a high standard for quality work, whether it’s outlining product roadmaps, documenting design decisions, or shaping personas for AI tools.
