Born and raised just outside of Chicago, l’ve always had an affinity for art which ultimately lead me to obtain my bachelors degree in Graphic Design at DePaul University. While working as the lead graphic designer at a small e-commerce company, I had the exciting opportunity to take point on an overhaul of our internal banner system’s interface redesign.

I gained invaluable experience researching the main pain points, finding the most efficient ways for teams to use the program, and working with other department heads to produce a minimum viable product for iteration. I found the entire process thrilling and from there decided to pivot into learning the ins and out’s of the UX/Ul
design processes.

I am a firm believer that if it can be better, it should be. I thrive in environments that need innovative solutions to solve complex problems. Good user design is crucial for peak efficiency and from internal systems to social media, I want to make sure the user feels supported the whole journey. When l’m not designing or researching, I’m usually cooking, spending time with loved ones, needle pointing or watching a documentary.
