As a child, I enjoyed building things like robots and legos and solving puzzles in video games and dreamed of inventing amazing things. However, as I grew older, I realized I wanted a career combining my passion for problem-solving, technology, and helping others. Although I enjoyed working in hospitality and sharing pleasurable experiences with people, I desired a more stimulating career. That’s when a friend introduced me to UX design, and after learning more about it, I knew it was the perfect fit. I landed my first job as a UX designer at an energy company in six months and have loved it ever since. It’s the best of both worlds, as I use my problem-solving skills to create intuitive and engaging digital products that make a real difference in people’s lives.
My ultimate goal is to team up with an amazing group of designers in any of these industries: education, hospitality, health, fitness, gaming, and software companies. But, as a go-with-the-flow and adaptable person, if I believe in a company’s product, mission, and goals, no matter what industry they’re in, I’d be delighted to team up and assist in achieving great success for me and the company.
When I’m not glued to my computer, you can find me exploring nature and enjoying outdoor activities like mountain biking, road cycling, swimming, running, and hiking. In the winter, I’m trying my hand at snowboarding (last time I finally connected my turns on blues!) I’m always up for a new adventure and learning new skills. I was lucky enough to win 2nd place in my age group in my very first triathlon race in July 2022! I believe that hard work and consistency always pay off!
Curiosity
I am always eager to learn and grow as a person. I am constantly seeking new knowledge and ways to improve. I enjoy thinking creatively and exploring different perspectives.
Resiliency
I strive to be resilient at work by being adaptable and open to change. I also learn from feedback or criticism and stay focused on achieving the desired outcome.
Empathy
Having friends from diverse backgrounds helped me develop strong empathy skills that I utilize as a UX designer. Prioritizing user needs and insights, I create intuitive and engaging designs that cater to a wide range of users.
I would love to chat about UX stuff; let’s connect online or outdoors… maybe go for a bike ride!
