About

I’m a UX designer, researcher, and founder working at the intersection of technology, human behavior, and product strategy. With a background in computer engineering and human-computer interaction from Georgia Tech, I bring experience across research, design, prototyping, and cross-functional collaboration to shape products in e-commerce, VR, AI, and emerging technology. I’m especially energized by opportunities to make ambitious ideas feel useful, intuitive, and grounded in real user needs, while contributing to wellbeing and positive impact.
