UI/UX Designer | Product Design Specialist
I am a Senior UX Designer with a background in Computer Science Engineering and Human-Computer Interaction, specializing in Product Strategy, Visual, Interaction, and Accessible Design. With over four years of experience, I've worked across various sectors, including Healthcare, Supply Chain, Edu-Tech, SaaS, and Emerging Tech. Currently, I’m enhancing the CourseNetworking platform’s brand and UI at CyberLab (IUPUI). I've also collaborated with Honeywell and Riley Children’s Hospital, solving complex design challenges. I believe in the power of simplification, ensuring that my designs are intuitive, accessible, and impactful.

Notification Framework for Honeywell

I was part of the Honeywell Performance+ UX team as a User Experience Designer. My main focus was improving the user experience of the Workforce Intelligence module. I took the lead in designing the Notifications feature for this module and helped establish practical guidelines for its implementation.
