✨ Hello! ✨
I'm a visual and product designer with a fascination for human behaviour and ambition to tackle new challenges. I share a deep interest & curiosity in the effects technology continues to have on people’s demands and lifestyles. With a focus on human-centred approach, I believe every experience begins from the eye and resonates in the heart.
I am a graduate of Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, B.C. with a Bachelor’s Degree majoring in Interactive Arts + Technology and a minor in print & digital publishing.
I previously took on design co-ops at Big Room Inc., BlackBerry, Intuit Canada and Tealeaves.
Currently, I am working full-time at Yelp as a Senior Product Designer.
My self-taught hobbies inspire me to take on new skills and exercise my creative abilities. When I'm not immersed in projects or getting inspired at local craft fairs, I'm tinkering in the world of illustration, calligraphy and sewing.
