About me
I'm a Digital Product Designer with a background working for nonprofits as a Program/Project Coordinator and Research Executive. Back in my university days, I studied Sociology and Psychology but somehow always found myself in the Art Department. I tend to focus a lot on accessibility and inclusion as I strongly believe everyone should have access to the same resources, which is where my passion for Product Design stemmed from. Lately, I've been spending a lot of time contemplating how to use design to help incite change - politically, socially, and financially. ‍
