About

Designing with purpose, guided by users.

I'm a UX designer who solves complex problems with simple, user-centered solutions. I believe great design is invisible: it should feel natural and intuitive, and make people's lives easier without them noticing the effort behind it.

My story

From speech therapy to design.

I began my career as a speech-language pathologist, working closely with individuals to strengthen their communication skills. That work sparked a deep fascination with how people think, behave and interact with the world around them.

That curiosity led me to UX design, where I combine my understanding of human behavior with creativity and technology to craft intuitive, accessible experiences. I'm driven by solving real problems through thoughtful, inclusive design.

Today, I bring empathy, attention to detail and a user-first mindset to every project I take on.

Off the clock

When I'm not designing, you'll find me…

Traveling to new places
An orange sunset over the rooftops of Córdoba, Spain
Catching the sunset
My fluffy black, tan and white puppy sitting in fall leaves
Spending time with my furry friend
