I am a Product Designer with a Foundation in Architecture & UX
I studied architecture in my undergrad and recently completed a Masters of Information from the University of Toronto (UX focused). I am highly driven, curious, and a bit of a perfectionist who loves using my skills to bring business ideas to life. I enjoy being challenged and I'm always seeking new and better ways of doing things.
Since completing my masters, I've been doing all I can to learn about AI tech, build my personal brand and design skills. In my spare time, I study founders and great companies which helps me bring a strategic and wholistic approach to projects.
