UX/UI Designer and No-Code Web Developer
Hi! I’m a California native with a journey that’s taken me from fashion design into the world of UX/UI, where I get to blend creativity and technology to make a real impact. Working with brands like Macy’s and Target taught me the art of balancing aesthetics with functionality, and now, I’m all about crafting digital experiences that are intuitive and engaging. I’m always exploring new tools like Midjourney and Runway AI to push creative boundaries. Outside of work, I’m a big family person—I love spending time with my partner and our dogs, Bella and Charlie.
