I make products with the hopes of solving problems that help make people’s lives better. I enjoy building things. As a kid, I used to build tools from scrap electronics and found a lot of joy in it. As I grew, I got interested in visual art, I made films, graphic designs, which led me to discover drawing and visual communication. I did figure drawing, studied anatomy, got obsessed with animation, and eventually became an animator working for major streaming platforms. A highlight during this time was the opportunity to lead animation teams for shows for AppleTV+.
I learned how to communicate visually, design with intent, understand the audience, connect with them, and tell stories that make you feel, all skills I now bring into my product work where applicable.
I'm currently working at TD Bank as a UX designer, and outside of work, I am designing products for early-stage founders and investors at Venture Build. I'm part of the largest design club at the University of Toronto, where I work as a UX Designer. I'm also a master's candidate at UofT, where I am strengthening my skills in Product Design, Strategy, and Leadership.
I enjoy talking about innovation, technology, working with driven teams, building things, drawing, taking long walks, and observing people, animals, and things
