UX Designer & Researcher | Diverse Background
With a diverse educational background and a robust professional journey, I am a dedicated UX Designer and Researcher. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Civil Aviation (Engineering) from Republic Polytechnic, an Associate of Applied Science Degree in Baking and Pastry Arts from Auguste Escoffier School of Culinary Arts, and completed a User Experience Design Immersive program at General Assembly. My recent roles include spearheading UX design projects at Life Lately and Clora, where I led user research, created high-fidelity prototypes, and developed cohesive design systems. Previously, I served as an Assistant Manager at Sodexo, where I optimized inventory management and led a team of 35 employees. My career break was dedicated to personal growth, earning a degree in French Pastry, and volunteering, which enriched my interpersonal skills. I bring a unique blend of technical expertise, creative problem-solving, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
