Small interactive toys I prototype by pairing with AI — half design play, half code. Poke around and break things.

About

The person behind the pixels. ✧˚ ༘ ⋆。˚

I'm a UX & product designer based in the Bay Area with a B.A. in Cognitive Science (+ CS minor) from UC Berkeley. I discovered design in college and haven't looked back — it's the perfect blend of art, empathy, and problem-solving.

My cognitive-science background means I think a lot about why people do what they do — and I use that to design experiences that feel intuitive, not learned.

Outside of work, I'm probably sipping matcha, collecting cute trinkets, traveling somewhere new, or making art for no reason other than it brings me joy.
