INTRODUCTION
+ Born and raised in San Diego, California, my first steps were on the beach watching my dad surf on one of his handmade boards. I've been adventuring around California, the United States, Europe, and Japan for 24 years.
+ Currently, I work as a UX/XD Interaction Designer at Invetech.

PASSIONS
+ I grew up in a family of artists, ranging from dancing to drawing to cinematography; I chose the trumpet and photography as my form of artistic expression. My upbringing as an artist led me to appreciate UX design. I want to make good design that makes my spin instructor not swear at their system for not working.
+ Like many, I've been stuck in classes for as long as I can remember, but the funny thing is, I love it. I love to learn; I question and research everything. I’ve been told the answer to life, the universe, and everything is 42, but I think there’s more to it than that. 
+ I am an extrovert - I enjoy sharing my ideas and hearing others’ perspectives. I've loved talking to people since I met my childhood best friend. I want to help solve the world’s problems with my words and then connect those ideas with individuals in a creative and novel way. 

HOBBIES
+ Exploring new recipes
+ Tennis, basketball, cycling, and yoga
+ Traveling and exploring new places
+ DIY Projects like soap making, knitting, and woodworking (ask me about refurbishing my great-grandfather’s dining table)

EDUCATION
UC San Diego, December 2017 (Cum laude)
+ BS in Cognitive Science with a specialization in Human-Computer Interaction
+ BA in Sociology
+ Minor in Business
