As a designer, my passion lies in crafting solutions rooted in user-centered, innovative, and empathetic design.

My favorite parts of the design process are conducting primary research and engaging in prototyping. It feels like a natural calling to observe individuals grappling with life's obstacles, no matter how small, and to offer assistance as a designer. I also like to prototype something odd but interesting with my hands.

However, I Hosted a Strong Faith in Become a UX/Product Designer…

Throughout my undergraduate pursuit, I enrolled in numerous design classes, honing skills in UX and Product Design. Outside of my professional commitments, I engage in the design and prototyping of various items.

When I am not Designing,

I stroll about to savor tasty delicacies, I immerse myself in literature, I indulge in cooking abundantly, I drink many coffee and tea, and I own two adorable kitties.
