I’m a UX designer based in the Silicon Valley area. A problem-solver at my core, I enjoy thinking through complex problems and leveraging my design skills to craft intuitive, elegant solutions. I strive to create experiences where people and technology can seamlessly work as a team, achieving more together than they could alone. My specialties include interaction design, data visualization, and designing for enterprise software and financial applications. 

I have a master’s degree from the UC Berkeley School of Information, where I studied product design as well as a bit of software development, data analytics, machine learning, and agile product management. I also have a background in psychology, research, education, international business, and Japanese language and culture. In fact, after college, I lived and worked in Japan for many years. All of these diverse experiences allow me to approach design problems holistically and thoughtfully from a unique, yet empathetic, perspective. 

If you’d like to work with someone who can bring both an analytical mindset and a unique perspective to your next design problem, then let’s talk!
