Senior Product Designer | UI/UX Specialist
With a Bachelor of Arts in Visual Communication Design and Art Studio from the University of California, Davis, and specialized training in Responsive Web Design from the Bay Area Video Coalition, I bring a robust background in UI/UX design. My recent role as a Product Designer at DrLambda involved executing AI-driven features for a slide creation tool, optimizing product performance through data-driven design, and conducting extensive user research. Prior to this, I served as a Senior Product Designer at Skupos Inc., where I designed user-friendly applications for the convenience retail sector and developed high-fidelity UI mockups. My tenure at Skupos also included roles as a Product Designer and Senior Visual Designer, where I established the company's first branding system and led visual direction for major industry events. Earlier, as an Art Director at Firewood Marketing, I conceptualized and designed compelling campaigns and evolved brand expressions for high-profile clients.
