Sunny California ☀️
Lead Designer and Project Manager at Intelligaia
I’m an innovative problem solver with a passion for design and technology. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve been captivated by visual art and tech, which inspired me to study design in college.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of working with a wide range of clients, from exciting startups to well-known Fortune 500 companies. In addition to honing my creative abilities, these experiences have taught me how to understand different business needs and adjust to many team cultures.
When I’m not advocating for users, you'll find me climbing rocks, getting my hands dirty in the garden, exploring new corners of the world, or shaping clay on a pottery wheel.
