About

With a strong foundation in economics from Vanderbilt University and specialized training from Designlab's UX Academy, I bring a diverse skill set to the field of product design. Currently working as a freelance Product Designer, I focus on creating user-centric designs, conducting user research, and collaborating with clients to deliver high-quality solutions. My previous roles include strategic benchmarking at Robinhood, where I analyzed market trends and developed growth initiatives, and investment evaluation at SoftBank Investment Advisers. I also have experience as an Investment Banking Analyst at Citi, specializing in financial analysis and M&A transactions within the Technology Group. This unique blend of design and financial expertise enables me to approach projects with a comprehensive, strategic perspective.
