“focus on the best

thing”


Hi there! I’m a UX designer with experience building digital products for startups, nonprofits, and global companies like TikTok, where I designed interactive campaign experiences for TikTok Live, including the Gimme the Mic global talent competition.


A principle I carry into my design practice is: "Focus on the best next thing." It reminds me to stay adaptive—when something isn’t working, I iterate, refine, and design with purpose. I believe effective UX is about continuous improvement and aligning with real human needs.


I recently earned my degree in Informatics from the University of Washington with a focus on UX/UI design. My work spans from researching the role of AI chatbots in community support to designing interfaces that improve emergency communication for firefighters. I’ve also created visual content for organizations like UW Bothell, combining thoughtful design with clear storytelling.


ps: I’m also a fan of brunch, matcha, dance, and building joyful digital experiences that make people feel seen. :)

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented designer

Whether it's refining layouts or fine-tuning microinteractions, I believe even the smallest details can create meaningful impact. Working within established design systems has shown me that hard work and precision are key to bringing thoughtful design solutions to life.
