About the designer

Productivity junkie, artist at heart

Design has always been a big part of my life; it started with tracing Sailor Moon posters and calling them my own art at the age of 6, to hardcoding the tackiest looking blog websites at 12. Today, I look at my design work with a systems thinking lens, and put the pieces together across disciplines.

Work history: Product, UX, graphic and web

Interactive Multimedia and Design

Bachelor’s Degree, Carleton University — 2014

A Bachelor of Information Technology with an entrepreneurial focus — a program that spanned the whole surface area of building digital things:

  • Human–computer interaction

  • Visual and graphic design
  • Audio and video production
  • 3D modelling
  • Development and programming
  • … and everything in between

Open to web design projects

I’m currently open to taking on new web design projects!

Outside of work

If I can manage to leave my laptop, I’m usually doing something around people.

Volunteering, in general

I love contributing my expertise to causes I care about while connecting with like-minded people along the way.

Meetups and connections

I enjoy attending and hosting meetups whenever I get the chance — tech-related or not. New connections are one of my prime sources of life inspiration.

Notion and Obsidian

I often don’t manage to leave my laptop - Notion database and formula configurations and Obsidian knowledge management are my favourite ways to organize and optimize my life.

Away from the laptop

Yoga and mindfulness, Brazilian zouk dancing, drawing, summer adventures with my dog, long walks, and paddle boarding.
