Summary

Architect-turned-UX Designer over 4 years of experience in spatial and human-centered design, now crafting intuitive digital experiences through empathy-driven design. My background in leading residential projects sharpened my skills in user research, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration. After completing the Google UX Design Certificate and a real-world internship program with clients like Tap4Change, RSPCA, and Omnivore, I now bring end-to-end UX expertise from research and journey mapping to wireframing, prototyping, and usability testing.
