About Me

An Engineer turned UX Designer & Researcher

I started my design career in Enterprise B2B systems, where clarity and scale mattered more than visual polish. That experience shaped how I approach design, not as surface-level problem solving, but as a way to bring structure to complex systems.

Now, I work across research, interaction design, and systems thinking, with a focus on decisions that hold up as products grow.

Over the past 3.5+ years, I’ve worked across Enterprise platforms, Aviation systems, Cultural institutions, and Consumer products. I often sit between engineers, researchers, and product teams, translating technical constraints into clear, human-centered decisions.
