What I'm looking for

I am seeking a collaborative environment where I can leverage my design skills to create impactful user experiences and grow within the tech and design fields.

I am a user-focused UI/UX Designer with hands-on experience in conducting UX audits, designing responsive web interfaces, and prototyping solutions that enhance usability and drive business outcomes. My background in high-pressure, people-centered roles, including emergency response and healthcare, has equipped me with a strong foundation in empathy, communication, and process optimization. I am actively transitioning from technical operations into tech and design, aiming to create meaningful, user-first solutions at scale.

Currently, I am working as a UI/UX Design Intern at Fini, where I conduct UX audits and redesign key user flows to improve engagement on the marketing site. My role involves creating wireframes, mockups, and high-fidelity prototypes using Figma, ensuring responsive design across devices. I collaborate closely with product and marketing teams, participating in design critiques and stakeholder presentations, while implementing accessibility standards to maintain visual consistency based on the brand’s design system.
