My design journey starts with a sketchbook in the corner of a classroom. Elementary school me was painfully shy and couldn't focus in class, so I drew. Kids would wander over and suddenly we were talking. Art was how I made friends before I knew how to make friends.

Growing up in San Francisco, I watched the city shift from art scenes to startups, which is where my interest in design and technology first started.

During the pandemic, I found UX design, and loved problem-solving while creating something for people. I started winning hackathons, co-founded CodeLab at UC Davis, and ended up getting my master's at University of Michigan. Since then I've interned at Activision Blizzard.

That's me so far! I am looking forward to what happens next. I'm still chasing what that sketchbook started, making things that connect people.
