My Story

I’m a Product Designer with a deep-rooted passion for building and creating—starting from childhood drawings and DIY projects to a career that bridges engineering and design. My curiosity led me to explore the intersection of these fields, giving me a unique blend of expertise in both Mechanical Engineering and Product Design.​

 

Wanting to balance form, function, and user experience, I pursued Master's of Arts in Product Design in college from Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, USA-diving deeper into the art of crafting meaningful products.

​

After earning my Master’s, I transitioned from Product Design to UX, eventually leading as a Senior Product Designer. I’ve worked across industries, designing B2B and B2C SaaS platforms, optimizing enterprise software delivery, and crafting user-centric design systems. My engineering background enables me to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams, aligning design with business strategy while ensuring accessibility and usability remain at the forefront.

​

For me, UX design is the perfect fusion of creativity, research, and problem-solving—an opportunity to design experiences that truly make a difference. I thrive on collaboration, iteration, and the constant pursuit of better solutions.

​​

I love the messy, iterative process of design—co-creating with users, building prototypes, testing, refining, and pushing ideas until they truly shine. But for me, the real magic happens in collaboration. I believe the best solutions emerge when diverse minds come together, which is why I thrive in cross-functional teams. Whether it’s co-creating with participants or building out prototypes in Figma, I’m driven by empathy, always asking: “How can we make this better for the user?
 

Always eager to learn and connect, I’m excited about new opportunities where I can apply my curiosity and skills to create impactful products. If you'd like to chat about UX, design, or potential roles, feel free to reach out via email or LinkedIn!
