What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a UX/UI or interaction design role where I can run research and usability testing, shape information architecture and flows, and iterate fast through prototyping—building products that feel simple, clear, and intentional.

I’m a User Experience and Interaction Designer with a visual design background, focused on understanding how people think and interact with digital products. I enjoy untangling complex problems and turning ideas into interfaces that feel clear, simple, and intentional.

In end-to-end UX projects, I work across research, problem framing, information architecture, user flows & journeys, usability testing, wireframes, and prototyping, iterating through critique, testing, and feedback. I’ve also built award-winning academic work, including a tangible embedded system navigation concept (MITID MERAKI SPYN) and a human-factors ergonomic safety tool concept (ARGYNE), and I create design systems, visual hierarchy, and reusable components in Figma through my visual design experience.
