What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build products where I can apply UI/UX design and user research while keeping workflows organized. I want a collaborative team that values clear communication, user-centered decisions, and continuous process improvement.

I’m a UI/UX designer and product manager with experience supporting both operations and product delivery. In government and corporate settings, I’ve handled records and correspondence processes, coordinated file movement, and helped teams resolve departmental complaints efficiently.

At OminArts, I maintained an organized workflow, improved product aesthetics with modern UI/UX designs, and researched target audience needs to guide design decisions. I developed wireframes and prototypes to strengthen user interaction, pairing product thinking with practical execution.

Earlier, as an intern at NITDA, I supported project work through team coordination and staff meeting contributions, building strong communication and organizational habits. I’m also certified in product design through TECHNEXUS, and I bring an improvement mindset grounded in user needs and clear, reliable work.
