About

A graduate of the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science, I have honed my skills in UX design and front-end development through diverse roles. At Yerbba, I am currently designing an intuitive breast cancer report to provide personalized information for patients. My previous experience includes working as a UX Designer at ShotQuality, where I transformed data insights into user-friendly designs for college basketball coaches. As a UX Researcher in Professor Gabriela Marcu's lab, I conducted interviews to improve tools for the Oxford Autism Treatment Center. At Filos, I developed wireframes for a mobile app focused on market-based challenges. Additionally, I contributed to the University of Michigan as a Student Caller, raising funds for scholarships and programs. My career is driven by a passion for creating user-centered designs that enhance experiences and improve accessibility.
