About

I graduated as a Master of Information student concentrating on User Experience Design from the University of Toronto. Coming from a Digital Enterprise Management and Communications background, I strive to provide meaningful, impactful, and clear user-centred design solutions that solve users' needs and facilitate business growth. I possess a curiosity to empathize with users and have a passion for improving people’s lives. Last but not least, I am capable of proactively detecting difficulties and presenting solutions in a timely way with my experience working in a fast-paced workplace.
