About me
I’m an Artist turned Product Designer. I help teams identify, define and creatively respond to business and customer needs using intuitive and thoughtful designs inspired by data.
I have a graphic design and web development background as well where I helped small to medium-sized businesses with brand and product alignment along with overall strategy. I also studied design and technology, and behavioral psychology at the MFA program at Parsons.
Outside of work, I love traveling, hunting for good books and shows, being surrounded by plants and cuddling with my furry friends. I am also into practicing Buddhist philosophy and believe that the world can be a better place by unlocking and empowering the dormant potential within all individuals.
I'm always open to meeting and collaborating with fellow creatives- so please feel free to reach out 👋
