About Me
Where I Started
I'm a UX designer in Vancouver, driven by a passion for crafting experiences that truly resonate with people. My journey to UX wasn't linear; it's a story shaped by a unique blend of experiences. I began my career as a developer, captivated by the logic of systems. Yet, as I built, I often encountered a subtle disconnect: solutions that functioned flawlessly on paper but just didn't feel right to use. This quiet observation drew me to the fascinating world of UX, where functionality harmonizes with the intricacies of the human mind.

The ways I see UX
I didn't learn UX from a single place. It came from seeing it everywhere, through distinct perspectives that now form my core approach:

From my dad, a branding designer, I learned that user trust starts before interaction. Visuals aren't just decoration; they're powerful tools that set the tone and define expectations, fundamentally shaping a user's initial perception.

Watching my mom lead complex projects as a consultant and business owner taught me that good design serves something much bigger. It needs to align with core business goals, navigate diverse stakeholder perspectives, and thoughtfully weigh tradeoffs to deliver real-world impact and drive strategic value.

At UBC, studying Cognitive Systems provided me with the foundational tools to understand how people think and act in digital spaces. This lens is crucial for truly understanding user needs and motivations.

That same program taught me how systems work under the hood and how design decisions aren't isolated but ripple through complex systems, impacting performance and scalability.

Through Game Design
Years of making games showed me UX at its most honest. Unlike most interfaces, where users may have external incentives to engage, players in a game have no external reason to participate unless the experience is intrinsically compelling. This sharpened my eye for unwavering clarity, seamless flow, and designing for profound, intrinsic engagement, lessons directly applicable to any user experience.
Why I Design
What truly drives me isn't flashy design; it's the subtlety and meaningful impact it has on people's lives. I'm passionate about crafting experiences that just make sense intuitively: a screen that offers a moment of ease, preventing frustration, or a feature that quietly saves someone precious time without them even noticing. These are the wins I genuinely care about: thoughtful, honest, and invisible design that makes daily life feel a little smoother and more effective. That's what motivates me to do this work every day.
