I was the first in my family to graduate from college, so I had to navigate my career path without a roadmap. Early on, I found myself in healthcare, but I’ve always had a passion for design. After work, I’d spend my evenings tinkering with design projects just for fun, and I still do. Even though I’ve always had that creative spark, I never really saw design as a 'real' career path, until now.

My journey into design began with a desire to align my work with my creative interests and problem-solving skills. Reflecting on my healthcare experience, I realize that I have a genuine drive to help people. This led me to see that digital interfaces often intimidate healthcare consumers instead of simplifying their lives. This insight sparked my passion for UX design, where I aim to create clear, transparent, and approachable designs that make digital tools more trustworthy and user-friendly.

My time in healthcare shaped my analytical approach to problem-solving and nurtured a strong curiosity to learn, both essential for understanding complex challenges and finding innovative solutions.
