As a human-centered designer with a keen penchant for innovative solutions, I'm driven by the mission to bridge the gap between intricate technology and its users, crafting impactful, intuitive experiences that resonate deeply.
Drawing from a diverse and interdisciplinary background, my journey began with collaborating alongside master artists, award-winning chefs, and tech enthusiasts. This unique exposure blend has instilled in me a vision that's as much about aesthetic appeal as it is about functional brilliance. My formal education at the University of Denver, culminating in a master’s in information communication and technology and an intensive immersion in General Assembly's UX Bootcamp, has fortified my web design, development, and UX skills.
Incorporating my classically trained arts background with over a decade in the food service and restaurant management arena, I've developed a multi-faceted approach to design. I believe this symbiotic relationship of art, service, and human-centric design sets me apart.
My portfolio is a testament to this: crafting online experiences and developing enterprise architecture blueprints to building responsive websites and intricate digital applications.
Analytical, critical, and forward-thinking paradigms fuel every project I undertake. Whether it's an intricate website wireframe or a user-friendly app, my goal remains unwavering: to simplify, enhance, and revolutionize our digital interactions. With a relentless work ethic and a collaborative spirit, I'm steadfast in my commitment to making a tangible, positive difference in design.
As I stand on the precipice of new beginnings after graduation and have delved deep into research on enhancing user experience in web design through my thesis, I'm more eager than ever to confront novel challenges. Collaborating with dynamic teams, sharing insights, and co-creating digital magic is what I look forward to.
Away from the design sphere, you'll often find me reveling in the great outdoors, whether skiing down snowy slopes, fly fishing in serene rivers, or simply soaking in nature's tranquility.
