About Me

My story

Building systems and designing with purpose

My career started with a simple question: How can technology help people connect? Early experiments with HTML and CSS (like customizing MySpace profiles!) showed me how even small technical adjustments could shape user experiences. Though I initially studied social sciences, a path that sharpened my ability to listen, spot patterns, and ask purposeful questions, those skills unexpectedly became the backbone of my approach to design.

From front-end to UX strategy
After returning to tech through coding bootcamps, I worked as a frontend designer bridging client ideas with functional interfaces. But I found myself drawn to the bigger picture: Are we solving the right problems? Together with a colleague, I helped establish a UX practice that prioritized user research and iterative design. Over time, this grew into mentoring teams, facilitating cross-functional collaboration, and making sure that user needs stayed central to every project.

Jollyroom: designing behind the scenes
At Jollyroom, I shifted focus to the systems that power efficiency. As a UX Process Developer, I collaborated on service design improvements, streamlined UI architecture, and untangled workflows across departments. Working within a new IT team, we introduced agile practices to balance innovation with operational needs, and as part of the product owner group, I helped align user insights with business priorities.

Why this matters to you

If you’re reading this, you’re probably looking for someone who thrives in the messy middle, between vision and execution, pixels and processes, “what if?” and “what’s next?”. My journey, from frontend tinkering to system-shaping, taught me that constraints are just design challenges in disguise. Living at the intersection of identities society often ignores means I design for complexity, not just simplicity. Whether it’s leading teams, refining workflows, or turning “this isn’t working” into “let’s fix it together,” I’ve learned to love the how as much as the wow.
