Learn more about me!
I'm a UX/UI designer with an interdisciplinary background in Psychology and Human services. Currently based in Milford, CT. I focus on User Research, Interaction Design and often daydream about a world filled with donuts.
As a designer, I have always strived to create impactful solutions by employing a human-centric approach and leveraging my innate curiosity to make people's lives easier and more delightful.
How did I get into UX/UI Design?
I was very curious when I was a child, as a first generation American, I faced a lot of responsibility. I was the jack of all trades in my household, I was in charge of translating for my parents along with the usual "tech" questions. I would occasionally help my parents work their newest iPhones to downloading music into my mom's iPod mini, which, in fact-still works. Because of this, my curiosity was peaked once I found out about Tumblr. I spent most of my days and nights on Tumblr, from doing typical moldboards, visual design and a bit of coding.
As I grew older, I was pushed into the career of Psychology. I enjoyed helping those around me, I enjoyed helping my community when it came to helping the low-income families of Bronx, New York, but somehow, someway, I was always drawn back to visual design. I then decided to take a big step and enroll in the Product Design course at Flatiron School.
As passion leads the way, I decided to pursue a career that allows me to follow my life-long passion for design, utilize my strengths and experiences purposefully to create meaningful, memorable experiences for everyone on the web and beyond.
What I do when I'm not working-
When I'm not working, I'm usually at home playing with my 1-Year-old Havanese pup named Nugget or goofing around with a couple of friends on video games such as Valorant or Stardew Valley.
Other Things I enjoy are;
Food: I'm a huge food enthusiast with a big sweet tooth. I enjoy going to New York and trying out pastries at newly opened bakeries along with trying out delicious meals in Little Italy located in Downtown Manhattan or even hanging out at local karaoke bars at Korean located at the heart of New York.
Cooking: I enjoy looking up new recipes to try out along with watching YouTube videos on different cuisines.
Content Creating: When I'm totally up for it, you can also find me on Twitch! I usually stream a couple of games that I enjoy and try to keep a welcoming community!
