I’m a UX/UI & Visual Designer currently crafting user experiences at Google. My work involves designing transformative tools that empower merchants worldwide. Before this role, I contributed to Google’s shopping ads team, collaborating closely with fellow designers and cross-functional teams to enhance the online shopping journey for billions of users across the globe.
With over a decade’s experience in visual design, I transitioned into the world of UX while working at Raisin, a fintech startup. There, I partnered with product managers, engineers, and the marketing team, took the lead in the design process and successfully launched an innovative online banking platform.
I’m passionate about exploring solutions that address various user problems, validating these solutions through rigorous testing, and gathering invaluable user feedback. I firmly believe that the most critical qualities of a UX designer are empathy and a strong common sense.
Teaching and Mentoring on the Side
I’m also deeply dedicated to education. As a side hustle, I teach UX/UI design at Columbia Engineering’s UX/UI boot camp. It’s an enriching experience to share my knowledge and mentor students as they go through their career transitions into the industry.
Life Beyond Work: Exploring Art and Racing Marathons
When I’m not working, I turn to art and exercise as my ways of relaxation and rejuvenation. Nature serves as a constant wellspring of inspiration, fueling my creativity as I paint delicate watercolor flowers. Additionally, I have a passion for running marathons, which not only keeps me active but also provides the opportunity to explore new cities and cultures.
