What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a role that fosters creativity and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful design solutions and continue to grow my skills.

I'm a passionate product designer with a strong background in UX/UI design, user research, and content strategy. My experience spans various product teams where I've focused on creating accessible and user-centered solutions. At OKX, I collaborated closely with the product team to enhance key products like OKX Explorer and Chaintelligence, ensuring that user feedback and data insights informed our design decisions.

During my internship at Treehouse Labs, I led a capstone research project aimed at improving digital accessibility for visually impaired users. This experience, along with my role at Open Government Products, where I worked with public agencies to design and prototype new products, has equipped me with the skills to drive user experience improvements effectively. I thrive in environments that challenge me to innovate and push the boundaries of design.
