Hello!
As a designer, I believe design should positively advance the human experience. I’m currently working as an Interaction Designer at a strategic design consultancy based in Brooklyn, NY called Smart Design. My human-centric approach covers the entire design process from vision concepts to technical design handoff. I pride myself in my honed design execution and rich background in product, visual, and UX/UI design. I’ve worked with clients such as Google, Meta, Instagram, Gatorade, Peloton, and Miovision.
