From Manila to Saskatoon to Toronto to New York
I am a designer committed to building inspired products & experiences alongside ambitious teams. I believe in combining research, intuition, and aesthetics as core drivers of great products.
My journey spans a move from a country with temperatures ranging from 30°C to -30°C, joining a tech startup in its first year, to flying to New York to help design consumer experiences with Google & Microsoft.
Recently, I've been drawn to various problem spaces within AI, productivity, e-commerce, & consumer tech.
Raised on the web, I'm motivated by making a positive impact on how people interact with technology.
