What I'm looking for
As a dedicated Product Designer based in Los Angeles, I have a strong focus on creating user-centered designs that prioritize accessibility and inclusivity. My experience spans various roles, including contract positions where I led design initiatives at companies like Kruiz and Tech Fleet. I am passionate about leveraging design to enhance user experiences, particularly for neurodivergent individuals, ensuring that all users can interact with technology seamlessly.
Throughout my career, I have successfully implemented design solutions that adhere to WCAG guidelines and Plain Language principles.
