About me

Hello! Welcome to my humble abode.

You're now a part of the 5% of visitors who make it to this page, congratulations! :)

I'm currently a grad student at Northwestern University (Go Cats!), getting my M.Sc. in Engineering Design Innovation (EDI), with a focus on Human-Centered Design, and a minor in Entrepreneurship!

I've got all the skills of a designer, plus the mindset of a PM and strategist!

My design philosophy

Design is more than just the user; it's about the systems we move through and the relationships we build. That's why I take a research-driven, systems-thinking approach to craft experiences, connecting people and empowering both users and businesses to reach their goals at scale.

In addition to UX, I’m passionate about designing for emerging technologies like AR/VR and artificial intelligence.

My story

I grew up in Queens, NY, as a first-gen Asian American. Communicating with my family and community often meant switching between languages—a practice that taught me how to listen closely, adapt, and translate ideas across contexts. It’s a skill I carry into my work today, whether I’m collaborating with designers, engineers, or stakeholders.

Culture is a big part of who I am. When I’m not working or studying, you’ll find me hunting for late-night bites in Chinatown or scrolling for authentic recipes to try at home.

My goals

Honestly, my goals are always shifting—from big tech to starting my own company, or just learning to play that one song on the guitar. But one thing’s certain: I want to be in a place that embraces learning. For me, learning doesn’t end with grad school, it’s ongoing.

Over the next few years, I hope to continue growing as a designer, storyteller, and leader, as well as leveling up my illustration and art skills!
