Before design, I studied sociology and business administration at The University of Texas at Austin🤘
I originally wanted to pursue research to study the impact of health and illness in society.
However! During my last semester of undergrad I took an intro course into UX/UI and completely fell in love with the UX process.
Research is a huge passion of mine, but I realized that I loved being a creative problem-solver.
Post-grad, I began pursuing UX/UI Design through a certificate offered at The University of Texas at Austin.
I currently combine my passion for research and creative problem-solving as a UX/UI Designer at Giddy✨

My design decisions are made with intention, backed by research, and user tested.
In my free time, I create fun graphics for local-restaurants with JY Design.
Outside of work, I love trying out new bakery spots, exploring, creating, and sitting by the beach.

However!
During my last semester of undergrad, I took an intro course into UX/UI Design and fell in love with the design process.
I found that solving complex user problems and translating them into designs was the perfect balance of my passions for research and creative problem solving.
After undergrad, I returned to UT Austin and completed a UX/UI certificate from McCombs School of Business.
And.. that's how my UX journey began!
