I am a UX designer who graduated from the YSYS x Google UX Design Certificate Programme. I love UX Design because it is a bridge between my Economics, Business and Marketing background and my passion for tech and creativity. My approach is a user-centred one, leading from empathy for users while also considering business needs.
<aside> 💡 Outside of UX, I really love music, writing and videography.

As part of my love for writing, I started a LinkedIn writing challenge where I’ve been posting everyday on the platform for 30 consecutive days. This has led to a substantial increase in followers (I’m almost at 1k+), engagement and I’ve now become known as ‘the person doing the writing challenge’.
While you’re here, definitely check out my blog on Medium, where I write about my UX journey and how to thrive as a creative person. As you can tell, I have varied interests which I believe makes me stand out as a designer as I am not afraid to think outside the box and utilise my broad range of skills.
Fun fact about me: I spent 5+ years learning Spanish, all the way up to university level. I now tutor Spanish on the side and can speak the language fluently.
Additionally, I have experience with web development. I self-taught myself HTML, CSS and JavaScript and then proceeded to participate in my first ever hackathons, both of which I won:
In my free time, I also help clients build WordPress websites and tutor Spanish, as a fluent Spanish-speaker.
One design project I am very proud of is the Miricyl Mind Miles web-app, a new feature of UK mental health charity, Mricyl’s existing website (and the name ‘Mind Miles’ coined by me 🙂). I am an impact-driven individual, so I gravitate towards projects with meaning and tangible impact.
