ABOUT

I hope to capture both beauty and struggle in my work. Because I encompass the duality of two cultures, I hope to represent my diasporic reality, as I am from neither here nor there. My celebration of difference allows me to better understand myself in relation to other cultures, languages, values, and principles. When I graduated with a Comparative Literature degree, I vowed to honor cross-cultural and global perspectives. I often dedicate myself to social justice in my work.

UX + UI

I also hope to gain experience in UX, designing mobile and desktop prototypes that engage the user for the success of the site. I am looking forward to helping companies that impact the world for the better, with sustainable and conscious business practices. After completing the Rice UX/UI Bootcamp, I have learned many of the necessary tools to become a successful designer.
