about me
howdy.
๐ค I'm a senior UX designer with a background in biochemistry and hospitality. I solve problems with data to create intuitive experiences.
๐งพ My path to design was unconventional. During my undergraduate degree I studied biochemistry. I worked in a microbiology lab. I taught music and movement with The Calgary Stampede Showband, and moved abroad to volunteer at a medical clinic in Guatemala. I even wrote the MCAT and scored competitively, planning to pursue a career in medicine.
๐ When I discovered UX Design it was like a light bulb turned on. After graduating bootcamp I landed a full-time, remote role in less than 3 months and was promoted to senior designer in just over a year; now I'm helping others do the same.
โค๏ธ When I'm not working you can find me mentoring junior designers, arguing with my parrot Cheeto, or finding any excuse possible to book another vacation.
