My Story

was born in Chicago, Illinois but grew up in Las Vegas, Nevada most of my life. My first love was drawing. I remember getting Nickeloden magazines when I was little and spending hours trying to recreate the cartoon characters in them. Fast forward around a decade later, when Tumblr was at its peak, I found myself consumed in perfecting my blog to my liking - teaching myself basics in HTML and CSS. It wasn’t until after I graduated high school that I learned about UX/UI Design as a career, and I haven't looked back since.

It's not just a job for me. it's my passion.

So, how did I end up here? I decided to quit my job as a supervisor in Food and Beverage and took the plunge to pursue UX/UI Design full-time. I joined Lambda School as a student and then eventually became a Team Lead, where I helped incoming designers in the field. After finishing my core education, I received an offer to join a startup called CallStop. Since then, I have worked in multiple startup environments - I excel in the fast-paced, constantly changing environments.

On a personal level? Well, I absolutely love animals and the handsome pup with me is my best friend's dog, Shadow. I have a kitten named Lucy, who I adore with all my heart, but she barely stays still long enough to get a photo with her. Before COVID hit, you could find me hanging out with my friends or kicking some butt in arcade games. Now, you can mainly find me inside drawing something on Procreate or exploring the outdoors with my boyfriend.
