UX/UI Designer @ Nupt.AI | Research-Driven Interfaces | Design Systems & Prototyping | Web & AI Products | ArtCenter IxD
Hi! I'm Connor. I'm a product designer with a background in Interaction Design from ArtCenter College of Design. I'm driven by the belief that a problem isn't truly solved until it's solved for all. Through hands-on experience at startups like Nupt.AI and Baniya, I build products that create opportunities for everyone—bringing insight, imagination, and a healthy disregard for the impossible to design a more inclusive future.
