Prior to living in New York, I spent my entire childhood in Guam followed by many years of early adulthood in Southern California. I graduated from USC with a B.S. in accounting & a minor in data analytics before working as a finance & consulting professional.

As a result of my background, I'm always considering the feasibility of everything — financial or otherwise. I'm used to gathering data to explain every number and decision, and I'm used to adapting my work for various audiences. Taking something complex and breaking it down so that it's helpful and digestible was a part of my every day.

In 2023, I decided to pursue UX/UI to commit my time to work that's creative, yet still strategic and rooted in problem solving.

While I enjoyed optimizing spreadsheets for executives, I've found a new passion in helping people by crafting meaningful products.

When I'm not designing, I'm either making a matcha, tending to my plants, visiting museums, or just being out in the sun ◡̈
