Hey there! I am a product and UX/UI designer based near New York, with a background in digital media and publishing. I design to create immersive and engaging experiences for any and all with a story to tell.
My design approach blends user psychology, data analysis, and storytelling into insightful and unique solutions that inspire, engage, and empower users. I also bring a proven ability to design and ship 0 to 1 products, from concept to launch, with clarity and precision.
Prior to become a designer, I studied literature and worked on a variety of storytelling mediums like webtoons, manga, and editorial design. Working so closely with how people interact with stories and content made me realize how much design shapes experience.
That’s what inspired me to move into UX design: the opportunity to build digital spaces that feel natural, thoughtful, and genuinely useful for the people using them.

Narrative comes first.
I design around meaning, ensuring visual decisions are rooted in user journeys, not aesthetics alone.

Delivering thoughtful work within deadlines matter more than chasing perfection.
I iterate, test, and refine to move forward.
