About Me
LA raised, now at Duke, I'm passionate about optimizing usability and aesthetics simultaneously, never sacrificing accessibility for style or vice versa. Studying Computer Science, Visual/Media Studies, and Cultural Anthropology, I am fascinated by how visual design and technology can be used to tell stories and build connections.
I believe visual media combined with smart technology and design can bridge gaps between communities and create meaningful changes. Whether it is through a funky color palette to invite warmth or a modern logo to refresh a legacy brand, I believe every design choice should be intentional.
When I'm not fidgeting with Figma or discovering a new AI tool, you can find me reading (The Unbearable Lightness of Being, currently), rating a breakfast burrito (it should come with avocado if it's >$15), or scowering Expedia for cheap flights.
