About

With a diverse educational background and extensive experience in both engineering and design, I hold an Honours Bachelors of Applied Science in Civil Engineering from the University of Waterloo and a UX Design Certificate from Designlab. I have also studied Medieval Art and Architecture at the University of Oxford. Currently, I am a Structural Engineer-in-Training II at Tetra Tech, where I assist in the design, analysis, and inspection of structural projects. My previous roles include UX Designer at Tech Fleet, Product Designer at Co.Lab, User Experience Designer at Plant Mahmah, and Structural Designer at LEA Group. My multidisciplinary expertise allows me to bridge the gap between technical engineering and user-centered design.
