UX/UI Design / Product Design / UX Research / Design Systems / AI-Assisted Prototyping

I'm a UX/UI and product designer based in Pasadena, California. Since 2025 I have worked as a contract UX/UI designer with Zora Digital, a Chicago agency, designing websites, online stores, and mobile apps for its clients. I also work as a product designer at Creative Captains in Pasadena.

Before design, I spent about ten years in marketing, including product and UX work on the myAlarm mobile app at C.Nord. That background helps me start every project from what the audience needs and what the business wants to achieve.

My process starts with research: interviews, surveys, usability tests, and heatmap analysis in Hotjar and Crazy Egg. From there I move to user flows, wireframes, design systems, and high-fidelity interfaces in Figma, and I prototype with AI tools such as Figma Make and Claude. I also write HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, which helps me work closely with developers.

I hold an M.S. in Information Technology and the Google UX Design Certificate.
