About
With a Bachelor's degree in Interaction Design from Sheridan College and a Diploma in Business/Commerce from Niagara College, I have cultivated a robust foundation in both design and business. Currently, I lead product design at Untoldcine, guiding a team of junior designers and ensuring our designs drive user engagement and product success. My experience includes a Product Designer Internship at Univeris, where I developed high-fidelity wireframes for wealth management modules, and freelance digital design work, creating assets optimized for both digital and print. Additionally, I have experience as a Junior Website Builder at 360 Degree Taxes and as a Graphic Designer at House Of Ruby, where I developed cohesive brand strategies and visual identities. My expertise spans user testing, design systems, and collaboration with cross-functional teams to align business goals with user needs.
