🦥 More about me!
I am an Interdisciplinary designer, with a strong foundation in UX Research, and right now with a strong focus on Product Design and Design Systems.
I am an unapologetically vulnerable designer --> Not afraid of failures, setbacks, and feedback, but instead, I embrace learning as an opportunity for self-growth.
Passion for Sound Design, Civic Tech, and Justice Design.
These days, I think a lot about ethical design rules, ethical dilemmas in the workplace, and technology built with socio-technical ethical values. If you have the same interest or are just curious, would love to talk with you!
🫂 Clients I have worked with...
🤔 What is my "WHY?"
I believe technology should empower, not overpower people. My passion for HCI stems from a vision that upholds dignity, justice, and the common good. I aim to create experiences that put users in the driver's seat, amplify diverse voices, and steer our technological course toward empowerment rather than dystopia. I want to design a more just world where people feel in control of how technology affects their lives, and where technology enhances our shared humanity.
🫣 How do I see design?
I aim to use design to raise my voice against inequalities and support people, and I think I am doing my part. I volunteer at Robin Hood Army (Food insecurity NGO), Indy Animal Care Services (Feline and Canine Volunteer), and also an upcoming policy adviser volunteer at UNICEF
🫣 How do I envision the future of design?
I envision a future where design knows no boundaries, where creativity has no limits, and where everyone has a voice in the world of innovation. I think the future of design can change lives, ignite revolutions, and reshape what's possible.
