UX DESIGNER, AT YOUR SERVICE
☯️ Drawing from my core values of balance, inclusion, authenticity, playfulness, and discipline, I derive my superpowers: curiosity and relatability.

Background in Intentional UX & Product Design
ACCESSIBLE EXPERIENCE CREATRIX 🧘🏽♀️
🤘🏽 As a consequence of graduating cum laude in Political Science from the University of Texas at Austin, I’ve gained interdisciplinary skills in understanding human behavior, research, communication, and critical thinking. I enhanced my technical UX abilities by completing boot camp at Designlab, and working with cross-functional teams at aligned businesses on user-centered design projects.
My background in entrepreneurship and yoga education, with certifications like E-RYT 500 and YACEP, has honed my skills in needs assessment, analytical problem-solving, and product design. 💸
🗣️ Years of facilitation within the yoga industry provided a culture of feedback that is my foundation for perceptively reading people and situations. Using interpersonal communication, emotional intelligence, and intentional business strategy, I proficiently target audiences to extend product awareness through sustainable customer retention.
