I am a human-centered designer and applied researcher interested in how people actually use systems in real, imperfect situations. Through work across startups, non-profits, and independent practice, I’ve become especially curious about moments where users hesitate, adapt, or work around tools and how those moments reveal about design assumptions.

With a background in Biomedical Engineering and hands-on experience building digital products end to end, I enjoy collaborative, critique-driven environments and designing systems that balance complexity with clarity, and intention with real human use.
