What I'm looking for
I am a passionate UX/UI Designer with a strong foundation in luxury retail, dedicated to understanding user needs and enhancing engagement.

Currently, I am pursuing my MFA in Digital Media Art, where I have successfully defined brand strategies and designed visual identity systems tailored for Gen Z and Gen Alpha audiences. My work at LynaCam involved creating a unified brand voice and messaging framework that balances emotional warmth with scientific credibility, significantly enhancing the product's market presence.
In my previous roles, I have demonstrated my ability to translate complex requirements into intuitive designs, leading to substantial improvements in user engagement and operational efficiency. I am committed to continuous learning and growth in the field of UX/UI design, always striving to create impactful digital experiences.
