I originally went to school for biology 🌱 but after a few years in the workforce realized product and UX/UI design was more my speed.
I see design as a way to combine creativity and data to make things that people will enjoy using! I love to take on new challenges, but am especially interested in:
• mobile design
• consumer focused products
• data visualization
