I’ve always been drawn to both art and technology, and my path into design grew naturally from that intersection. My career began in the culinary world, where I trained as a classically trained chef and worked in fast-paced kitchens that demanded creativity, precision, and resilience. I later moved into front-of-house leadership roles, where I learned the importance of collaboration, communication, and how strong teams come together under pressure.
While I loved the energy of the culinary industry, my desire for creative expression and problem-solving led me to transition into graphic design and UX design in 2020. Through a mix of self-guided learning and formal education at UCLA, I sharpened my craft and developed a deeper understanding of how thoughtful design can shape experiences, tell stories, and drive meaningful outcomes.
Today, I bring that multidisciplinary background into every project I touch. From building visual narratives and designing immersive experiences for events, to collaborating with cross-functional teams to translate strategy into compelling visuals, I approach my work with curiosity, intention, and care. I’m motivated by creating work that not only looks good, but connects with people, supports business goals, and leaves a lasting impression.
