Who I am
I consider myself a life-long learner: following my undergraduate degree in creative advertising, I applied my knowledge of consumer-brand relationships for three years within content management until becoming a Digital Content Manager.
I eventually decided to return to school as a Master of Information candidate at the University of Toronto to further my understanding of user experience design across all applications, not just digital.
What I care about
Decolonizing design: I'm interested in work that investigates how institutions can better represent and support the lived experiences of the communities they serve.
Growth: My journey into design started when I taught myself how to use Photoshop in sixth grade. I credit my accomplishments to date to that ambitious and curious kid.
Cats: My two cats - Toro and Soya - are my whole world! Ask me about them and I wouldn't be able to stop talking.
Why I'm here
At the heart of user experience is people. I believe there's something valuable to learn from every person I meet, and I look forward to the experiences and relationships this field can expose me to.
