👩🏼‍💻 About

Background


I began my career in 2010 as a physical product designer, where I learned how to balance user needs with ergonomics, usability, aesthetics and material constraints.In 2022, I moved into digital design, applying the same human-centered principles to understanding users, investigating problems and designing practical solutions.Since then, I’ve worked across UX design, research, AI interaction and broader digital design, bringing this problem-solving approach to different contexts and technologies.
