1-2 weeksa few things about me
Self-taught developer shipping production apps. Starting University of Washington's Human-Centered Design and Engineering master's program in fall 2026, to deepen my practice in HCI and UX research.
In a time of constant change and development, it is important to not leave others behind. With my interest in design and development, UX and HCI is the perfect area of study to ensure equity for all in a rapidly changing tech industry.
My roots lie in a self-taught approach. Through tenacity and grit, I am capable of achieving whatever it is I set my mind to. All projects are enticing, yet no project is enough.
