“What good shall I do today?" Benjamin Franklin asked himself that every morning. I do too!

I believe Product Design is a force for good as it lets me excite humans with beautiful apps and websites which I thoughtfully designed to be accessible, inclusive, and practical.

With my Marketing experience and Psychology skills, I’m inspired to consciously create digital experiences that are user-friendly and visually appealing.

My Top 5 Skills Are:
1. Communication -- using good storytelling in all my interactions and collaborations
2. Facilitation -- managing group dynamics to ensure the best outcomes in efficient time frames
3. Improvisation aka Adaptability -- adapting research and design solutions to the key moments and context needed
4. Empathizing -- User Experience Design requires deep work, active listening, patience, and not judging the choices made by users
5. Curiosity -- As a lifelong learner, having a beginner's mind so I constantly open to new ideas, methods, practices, points of view as I explore various topics, asking many questions to help discover truths and enjoy the journey
