About Me
I’m a psychology graduate turned UX designer with a passion for crafting inclusive, user-centered experiences. Based in Toronto, I specialize in understanding how people interact with technology, designing with empathy and purpose.
With a background in research and social media management, I excel at collaborating across teams and effectively communicating ideas. My 7+ years of customer service experience further enhance my ability to connect with diverse audiences. I’m eager to bring these skills to a team, to create solutions that drive meaningful impact.
I love collaborating to push boundaries and produce work that not only meets but exceeds expectations. If you’re looking for someone who is passionate about design and dedicated to professionalism, let’s connect and create something amazing together!
